Contemporary robots are progressively handling high-precision assignments that demand utmost accuracy. With the implementation of artificial intelligence, they are becoming more adaptable and intelligent, capable of managing much more complex tasks than only a few years prior. Approximately 30 firms will showcase innovative and contemporary applications at the Application Park.
The French firm Inbolt is set to provide a smart, flexible solution for guiding robots: equipped with a 3D camera attached directly to the robot, algorithms driven by AI enable it to quickly identify and place components in real time, while seamlessly modifying its movements on the go to attain optimal outcomes. Inbolt’s solution is appropriate for various applications, ranging from basic pick-and-place activities to intricate assembly operations. Through AI-powered software that monitors and modifies moving components in real-time, Inbolt facilitates the automation of assembly lines while maintaining uninterrupted production. This elevates productivity and efficiency to an entirely new standard.
Voraus Robotik aus Hannover wird demonstrieren, wie aktuelle Informationstechnologie (IT) zuverlässig und stabil mit industrieller Automatisierung (Operational Technology – OT) kombiniert werden kann. The fundamental elements consist of the automation software voraus.core and the development platform voraus.pioneer. These can be utilized to develop, replicate, enhance, and implement agnostic solutions (indicating that the technique or format of data transfer does not impact the device or program’s operation). Thanks to high-level programming languages, current IT infrastructure and existing AI processes can be seamlessly integrated.
Mobile industrial robots such as AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots) or IMRs (Industrial Mobile Robots) will account for the lion’s share of the exhibits in the Application Park. For them, Conductix-Wampfler from Weil am Rhein offers innovative solutions that increase efficiency and reliability in intralogistics and automotive production. The portfolio includes charging contacts such as Enduro+ and Nano+ as well as inductive charging with the WirelessCharger 3.0 to ensure optimum energy management. The energy storage systems maximize operating time. Robin’6 offers Wi-Fi 6 connectivity for seamless fleet deployment, while RadioSafe provides SIL 3/PLe safety for robot fleets. The energy and data transmission solutions can be adapted to the requirements of any mobile robot application.
When it comes to bulky loads and heavy transport goods, the Swabian family business Blickle comes into its own, because in-house processes require speed and flexibility. Blickle will be presenting an intelligent solution in the form of ErgoMove: the ErgoMove electric drive systems move loads of up to 4,000 kilograms safely, intuitively and without manual effort. ErgoMove combines ergonomics, safety and productivity. True to the motto: “Moving everything. Anywhere.”
Pro Spot Deutschland GmbH from Donaueschingen will be attending with its new 15s Smart Spot welding cobot! The world’s leading manual spot welding system has been seamlessly integrated into a safe, user-friendly cobot-automated welding work cell. This means that fully automatic spot welding is now also possible in production plants without complex safety cells and protective devices.
Indunorm Bewegungstechnik GmbH from Duisburg will be presenting a floor trolley for a wide range of robot applications (articulated robots, linear axis robots). Indunorm’s floor axis makes the articulated robot or any other robot mobile: instead of working statically in one place, the floor-mounted chassis gives the robot an additional axis and thus a larger radius of action. Perfect for automated production, the Indunorm floor trolley combines flexibility, efficiency, and modern design. It lies flat on the floor and fits seamlessly into any production environment.
