The flat, high-performance rotary units from Schunk are growing with a fourth size and an extended range of variants. The measuring system interfaces now also include the digital real-time interface Hiperface DSL.
For the ninth time, the international "Formnext Start-up Challenge" is once again honoring young companies from the world of additive manufacturing. Prizes are awarded for creative and viable business ideas - the topic of sustainability also plays a role. Companies can apply now.
New functions improve collaboration in the cloud and offer efficient and consistent simulation workflows as well as design finding with AI-supported simulation.
The adoption of automation for smart manufacturing has accelerated. Therefore, NexAIoT has enhanced both OT and IT systems by integrating self-developed data centers and data from digital factories.
ArtiMinds Robotics is presenting automation solutions from the field of advanced robotics at Automatica in Munich. The applications were programmed using the in-house software solutions ArtiMinds Robot Programming Suite (RPS) and ArtiMinds Learning & Analytics for Robots (LAR). Thanks to the low-code approach, both tools simplify the programming of sensor-based robot applications and enable the automation of production tasks that could previously only be solved manually.
Rockwell Automation will work with Total Energies, a global multi-energy company, to implement a robotic fleet management system that will enable autonomous operation of its offshore platforms.
