Four AI trend forecasts from Anders Billesø Beck of Universal Robots A/S.

The energy industry is often at the forefront of our minds as we watch fuel prices climb and then celebrate when they come down. We continually find ways to be as energy efficient as possible in our homes and workplaces. Media outlets keep us constantly informed of this often-volatile industry’s ups and downs.

While laser marking and engraving are well-established processes, innovations and investments in the sector are continuing to push performance boundaries.

From producing lithium-ion batteries to processing sheetmetal, new laser welding systems are “pushing the envelope” of light absorption, beam control, speed and programming flexibility.

Industrial lasers require cooling to remove excess heat generated in the resonator power electronics and the optics system. The type of cooling required is determined by laser wattage, resonator efficiency, resonator and optics temperature requirements, and ambient temperature.

Materials science has opened new possibilities for designers of cars, planes and other products. Metal alloys are now as precisely engineered as they are machined. The result is longer lasting, stronger parts. But with a wider selection of materials comes risk—how can you be sure that one piece of gray metal stock is different than another? Careful warehousing procedures and paperwork only go so far.

Tales from manufacturers who’ve implemented automation: Why they did it, what the results were—and advice to others considering a new droid.

Our annual celebration of leaders from every aspect of manufacturing who are bringing it into the future.

At its automotive plant in Jalisco, Mexico, Interplexico turned to robotics to improve production efficiency for one of its parts production lines.

Autonomous mobile robots are more than automated material handling.
