Automation Shines at First Solar

A highly automated manufacturing process helps first solar compete with cheap imports.
Jennifer Pierce
January 8, 2023

Every day in more than 45 countries, photovoltaic modules designed and manufactured by First Solar go to work converting sunlight into clean, reliable electricity. First Solar is the only American company ranked among the world’s top 10 solar manufacturers. The company’s headquarters is in Tempe, AZ, but its roots are in Ohio, where it operates the largest solar manufacturing footprint in the Western Hemisphere. More than half of First Solar’s 2,700 U.S. employees are located in Ohio.

Robots Assemble Electric Vehicles

Automakers need to be flexible and adopt new automation.
Patrick Matthews
December 21, 2022

Vehicle production plants are undergoing a massive transformation as automakers evolve from internal-combustion engines (ICE) to battery power. While EVs use fewer parts overall, those components tend to be heavier than their ICE equivalents. That demands new ways to deploy robots on assembly lines.

Capital Spending Survey 2022: Assemblers Continue to Invest

Buoyed by efforts to boost domestic production of EVs and electronics, manufacturers are investing in their assembly operations.
Sprovieri200
John Sprovieri
December 1, 2022

U.S. manufacturers have faced significant headwinds this year: supply chain problems, a skilled labor shortage, inflation, and the war in Ukraine. And yet despite these issues—or perhaps, because of them—manufacturers continued to invest in people, plants and equipment.

Screwdriving Gripper Mimics Two-Handed Assembly

Researchers have developed a single end-of-arm tool that can simultaneously hold a part in place and install it at the same time.
Sangchul Han Ph.D.
November 29, 2022

To automate an assembly task that requires two hands, engineers have two options: one robot equipped with a tool changer or two robots. Now, there may soon a third option. We have developed a single end-of-arm tool that can simultaneously hold a part, such as a dowel or a long screw, in place and install it at the same time.
