FORVIA increases logistics productivity with fleet of MiR robots
FORVIA has increased its logistics productivity, strengthened stability of production processes and decreased safety risks with a fleet of robots from Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR). The return of investment (ROI) from the 14 autonomous mobile robots (AMR) working in the Faurecia Clean Mobility plant in Písek, Czech Republic, was less than two years.
STMicroelectronics and eYs3D Microelectronics collaborate
STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor company serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, and eYs3D Microelectronics, a fabless semiconductor design house that focuses on end-to-end hardware and software systems for computer vision, including advanced vision-processing System-on-Chip (SoC) devices, will reveal the results of their collaboration on high-quality machine vision at CES 2023 in Las Vegas on January 5-8.
Webinar: How can radar increase robot productivity while maintaining operators' safety
Increase your robot’s performance and speed without compromising the time of response to a safety threat with TI mmWave radar technology. In this webinar you will learn about: 3D radar area scanning and 3D radar safety guards – how to ensure that under no condition an operator can be in vicinity of the robot arm undetected, even in presence of adverse environmental elements such as dust and particles which may obscure other ...

What are the best ways to optimise SCARA robot performance?
The Selective Compliance Articulated Robot Arm (SCARA) is one of engineering and industry's most well-regarded robotic assistants. Initially designed for assembly, advances have brought the SCARA robot into the modern age, learning more skills, and adapting to emerging tech.
Can robots care?
The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates a global shortfall of 15 million health workers by 2025.
A robot-based solution for end-of-line measurement of automotive radomes and bumpers
Together with its partner Löhnert Elektronik, Rohde & Schwarz has introduced a fully automated turnkey solution for bumper production radar transparency testing based on the successful R&S QAR50.
TIDA-01629 48V/500W Three-phase Inverter with Smart Gate Driver Reference Design for Servo Drives
Efficiency, protection, and integration are important design factors for compact DC-fed drives up to 60VDC. This reference design shows a three-phase inverter with nominal 48-V DC input and a 10-ARMS output current. The 100-V intelligent three-phase gate driver DRV8350R with integrated buck converter and six 100-V NexFET™ power MOSFETs with ultra-low gate charge enable high efficiency of the power stage.
