Experts receive £4m robotics grant to boost wind farms
Scientists at Heriot-Watt University are part of a consortium of experts delivering a human-robotics hybrid solution for the maintenance and operation of offshore wind farms.
Product testing getting you down? There's a cobot for that
How do you make sure that a product can handle the wear and tear of an expected life cycle and that all safety and quality standards are met? You test it. Over and over again.Nothing is more repetitive than product testing – lending itself to one of the “3D jobs” that robots excel at: dirty, dangerous…and dull.Increasingly, collaborative robots – or cobots - are now being used for product testing.
Report reveals public support for driverless cars in UK
A landmark study revealing broad public support for driverless vehicles on Britain’s roads has been published byWestbourne Communications.Following a highly competitive bid process, the People in Autonomous Vehicles in Urban Environments (PAVE) consortium secured joint funding by government and industry. The competition was delivered by Innovate UK, the UK’s innovation agency.
Robot population swells in industrial environments
Driven by the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), the global market for robotics in manufacturing is steadily gathering pace, despite the fact that some manufacturing companies are unclear about the benefits of the industrial cloud.

Offshore turbine design maximises cost reduction
As the global offshore wind power market continues its phenomenal growth, technologies are evolving to support lower project costs, and ultimately, lower cost of energy.The increasing size of wind turbines captures much of the attention surrounding that evolution, but the substructures that support the tower, nacelle and blades, are not to be overlooked, and are proving equally vital in reducing overall project costs.
Manufacturing stars shine at national awards ceremony
Across the UK talented apprentices and dynamic manufacturers were recognised as national manufacturing champions at the EEFFuture ManufacturingAwardsheld in London last week.The biggest winner on the night was Advanced Insulation, which scooped two awards and was crowned Winner of Winners – a title awarded to the most outstanding company amongst all the category winners.
