Fourteen months after a cobot cell started shipping, a mid-sized integrator discovered its torque records lived in a plant manager’s email folder. The customer audit was in nine days. That’s the moment quality stops being paperwork and starts being the reason revenue gets held hostage. You can’t spot-weld discipline into a hundred weldments spread across […]
Industrial robots are becoming more compact, more capable, and more dependent on electronics. A modern robotic system may combine servo drives, power converters, motion controllers, sensors, and onboard computing hardware within a limited amount of space. Each component performs a different function, but they share one engineering challenge: heat. For robot manufacturers and automation system […]
Tesollo, a South Korean robotics company specializing in robotic hands and multi-finger robotic grippers, expects cumulative sales of its robotic hands and grippers to surpass 1,000 units by the end of 2026. The milestone comes as demand continues to grow across humanoid robotics, physical AI, industrial automation and robotics research, while Tesollo expands its production […]
ASTM International’s robotics committee (F45) is developing a proposed standard for measuring the task performance of manipulators and mobile manipulators under controlled optical-signal degradation. The proposed method (WK100792) would measure the extent to which degradation in optical information affects a robot’s task performance. According to ASTM International member Aarati Noronha, real-world conditions can degrade the […]
Primepick, a New York-based company that designs and manufactures robotic food kiosks, is expanding to new locations. The startup is bringing MealMate, a fully certified, unattended kiosk that serves hot dishes in 5-7 minutes, to a hospital and a nursing home in the Tri-State area, its fourth and fifth sites. Beyond the region, Primepick is […]
