Artificial intelligence AI paves way for autonomous gripping
Industrial handling will be reinvented in the years ahead, says Prof. Dr. Markus Glück, Managing Director Research & Development (CINO) at SCHUNK. In the past, each step was elaborately programmed. However, tomorrow's handling solutions will act far more independently. The market is already demanding gripping systems that are quickly and easily to set up and automatically adapt to varying gripping situations. Also, collaboration between humans and robots are rapidly becoming more important. More... |

Reducing machine downtimes by 10%
Minimization of unproductive downtimes is a top priority for injection molding machine operators since this is the only way to have the investment in the machine amortized in the shortest possible time. The WITTMANN W8 and WX robot generations come with the patented SmartRemoval function as standard, which automatically shortens the time required for parts removal from the mold area without any operator intervention.

Bridging virtual and real worlds
Today design, simulation and prototype testing organizations operate in their own silos, often using out of date processes for their work. Using the Siemens platform for digital innovation, Konecranes has been able to connect the data from all of these organizations to create one 360 degree view of how prototypes are running and performing, and correlating requirements to, real world performance data.
