In the "H2 FastCell" project, Fraunhofer IPA and the Black Forest Centre for Digitalization, Leadership and Sustainability (Black Forest Campus) have developed a robotic cell in which two robots alternately stack bipolar plates and membrane electrode units into fuel cell stacks in a matter of seconds.

Nexcobot officially received the certificate for functional safety in accordance with IEC 61508 and ISO 13849-1 from TÜV Rheinland at the Hannover Messe.

A particularly user-friendly cobot application for small and medium-sized companies - usable without programming: a team of researchers from Belgium has won the Kuka robotics competition with this innovative concept.

A cobot that can draw was presented by the IPH, Institute for Integrated Production Hannover at the Hannover Messe 2024. The exhibit illustrated the connection between artificial intelligence and robotics in production.
Delta, provider of energy management as well as IoT-based and smart eco-friendly solutions, presented its first cobot family at the Hannover Messe.

Robotics for bakeries, bending processes or clothing companies: The current round of the Kuka Innovation Award calls for creativity in the field of robotics for trade and SMEs.

1,580 square meters of production space
The opening ceremony of the Zimmer Group's newest production facility in Kikvi, near Pune (India), will take place on April 16, 2024.
The efficiency of operational workflows can be significantly increased with autonomous intralogistics solutions. An expert in production logistics offers a new, customizable cobot palletizer for this purpose.

The BMW Group's engine plant in Steyr uses ABB's Gofa collaborative robot to transport components between processing stations.

Sysgo, NexCobot and Vectioneer are working on a joint project with Intel: a platform that serves as the basis for cobots. This will be presented at the upcoming Embedded World.
12 Magazino Soto robots for MAN
Truck manufacturer MAN is driving forward the automation of material supply at its engine plant in Nuremberg with 12 Magazino Soto robots.

Robotics for bakeries, bending processes or clothing companies: In the current round of the Kuka Innovation Award, creativity in the field of robotics for trade and SMEs is in demand. The three final teams have now been chosen. They will present their ideas at the Hannover Messe in April.
INDUSTRIAL Production Products of the year...
The flexible robot cell ZiMo enables a safe and cost-effective entry into process automation. The solution for small, medium and varying batch sizes is the winner in the competition for Product of the Year 2024 in the Robotics category.
Universal Robots travels through the DACH...
Universal Robots (UR), the Danish manufacturer of collaborative robots (cobots), is once again organizing its "Robots on Tour" event series in 2024. At 16 locations in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, interested parties will have the opportunity to find out more about how collaborative robotics works and its areas of application. The tour started on February 1 and ends on October 24.

Next generation of robotics experts
Students from Nuremberg Institute of Technology Georg Simon Ohm visited the Igus plant in Cologne to deepen their knowledge of automation technology. Last July, they had already traveled to Bordeaux as Team Autonohm to take part in the 26th RoboCup World Championships with the low-cost cobot ReBeL from Igus.

The German economy is weakening and, according to the Institute for Macroeconomics and Business Cycle Research (IMK), will only recover slowly in 2024. The mechanical engineering sector is also feeling the effects. In order to strengthen its own competitiveness, there is therefore no way around automation.

B&R Industrie-Elektronik GmbH has relocated its German headquarters from Bad Homburg to Friedberg in Hesse, where ABB's Robotics Division in Germany is based.

Nomination Products of the Year 2024
Kawasaki Robotics has introduced the new CL cobot series. It was created through a partnership with the German start-up Neura Robotics. This marks the Japanese robot pioneer's entry into the cobot market. The CL series has been nominated for the robotics category in the 2024 Product of the Year competition.
