Universal Robots announces that the Danish division of Carlsberg, one of the leading brewery groups in the world, has significantly improved staff safety and taken steps towards achieving zero accidents since integrating cobots into its Fredericia-based factory.
SICK has launched the world’s smallest safety laser scanner, the nanoScan3, designed for easy and economical integration into the smallest of machine designs, particularly for automated guided vehicles, carts, mobile platforms and service robots.
One of the biggest questions posed by manufacturers looking to transform their operations with artificial intelligence is: How do we know if we've got the data for this? It is a really good question. Machine learning is largely dependent on the ingestion of data - and not just any data. This article looks at the complexity that surrounds large industrial operations and the type of data manufacturing plants are probably already collecting. We also take a look at supporting the systems and infrastructure required.
The growth in world population is placing increased demands on agricultural production. This is one of the major challenges of modern agriculture, now in the midst of major transformation. Now that "intelligent" and connected equipment is becoming available on the market, answers to these needs are now within reach, while at the same time addressing environmental concerns. Real-time analysis of land and crops, the use of drones and geolocation systems, the implementation of software in agricultural equipment and greenhouse cultivation lead to new operational methods and the development and introduction of new devices and hence a need for connectivity. SOURIAU has been active in the agricultural sector for more than 20 years by providing its customers around the world with complete interconnection systems for harsh environments, continuously adapted to market evolutions.
Universal Robots (UR), the most trusted and widely-deployed collaborative robot (cobot) manufacturer in the world, today announces that Carlsberg, a global beer brewer, has significantly improved staff safety and taken steps towards achieving zero accidents since integrating cobots into its Fredericia-based factory.
The Han® 1A offers a compact, robust and universally deployable rectangular connector system for transmission in all lifelines of Industry 4.0 (data, power, signals). Users can use it in conjunction with low inventory to produce all necessary interfaces, e.g. for small to medium-sized drives.
