Robots are redefining the face of manufacturing. From moving heavy materials to a large number of programmed tasks in production, robotics has proved to be performing with great precision, speed, and reliability. As a result, major firms are seeking partners who can assist in deploying robotics rightly to optimally leverage their exciting features and streamline the manufacturing processes. Though integrating robots in factories might involve high upfront and maintenance costs, the long-term ROI makes the manufacturing robots the right investment.
Multiple robotic applications prevailing within this space are revolutionising the environment of industries, their factories, warehouses, shipping yards and other areas to simplify routine tasks. One of the trends involves the introduction of collaborative robots into manufacturing that are transforming the production lines. Light, mobile plug and play generation of cobots with advanced sensors, vision technologies, end-of-arm-tooling enable these to work safely on the floor along with the human workers. Additionally, material handling robots today are automating some of the most tedious and unsafe tasks, including product movements on the manufacturing floors, like part selection, transferring of the parts, palletising, loading and unloading and so on. Welding robots too are in vogue currently, owing to the incredible efficiency, load capacity, speed, and performance for diverse welding parts of multiple sizes and shapes. These robots also support several intelligent functions like ready-to-use robotic vision and collision avoidance. Assembly operations are also a vital part of manufacturing where robotic applications are used. Assembly robots move with greater speed and precision. Their reconfiguration is easy, and the risk in investment is lower.
The future of robotics is interesting with probabilities to creating the factories of the future. Robot-based inspection systems are continually increasing as vision systems are becoming more robust and flexible, helping to detect and inspect flaws and damages accurately. Furthermore, manufacturing robots are more affordable now and are mass-produced with easy installation features, amplifying the adoption of robots to navigate the complexities of diverse manufacturing landscapes. Here we bring to light the latest edition of Manufacturing Technology Insights to guide companies to search for the right solution partners in Europe. The magazine also compiles insights from industry experts, CIOs, and CXOs on the current trends, technological improvements, and innovations in this space.
We present to you Manufacturing Technology Insights’ “Top 10 Industrial Robotics Solution Companies in Europe - 2021.”
