Boston startup is lauded for its fully automatic motion planning software for industrial robots. The software develops an optimized “choreography” for robots that work closely together in cells. By coordinating the motion of each robot, the software prevents collisions.
On DemandJoin Silas Neale, Channel Development Manager from Universal Robots, as he details more of the differences between traditional robots and cobots.
On Demand Robots are still not as adept as people for complex tasks, such as assembling 3D mechatronic items. Now, new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and large language models in particular, are promising to give robots human-like ability to manipulate objects.
On Demand Whether you need a six-axis cobot for machine tending or a desktop Cartesian robot for dispensing adhesive, you’ll find it at The ASSEMBLY Show. Before you hit the show floor, tune into this exclusive panel discussion featuring executives from four of the nation’s top suppliers of robotic technology: FANUC, Janome, Schunk, and TM Robotics.
To gain real benefit from robotics, manufacturers must strive for "positive-sum automation," which enables both productivity and flexibility. Join this webinar to learn more.
