Choosing a belt-driven linear actuator for automated machinery comes with a common problem: It can be hard to find all the high-performance features and reliability attributes you want in a single unit.
STXI Motion, a global motion control and servo solution company, will present a variety of low-voltage mobile motion platform solutions intended for autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and shuttle system deployment at MODEX 2022, held March 28–31 in Atlanta, Georgia.
The Internet of Things, or the IoT, has changed the world as we know it. As a global community, we are more connected than ever—and perhaps more than we realize. Through the Internet of Things, we now have a vast network of internet-connected devices gathering, analyzing and storing data, running the gamut from smart home products to driverless vehicles.
West Midlands 5G (WM5G) has demonstrated the results of its pioneering 5G trial in collaboration with nexGworx and its technology partners BT and Nokia at the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC).
Preventing unplanned downtime in industrial processes only gets more important during times of high demand. The cost of gearbox, motor and drive shaft replacement often pales in comparison to that of the lost production resulting from mechanical torque overload failures caused by jams, collisions and binding in the driveline.
u-blox (SIX:UBXN), a global provider of leading positioning and wireless communication technologies and services, announced the certification of its SARA-R5 module on KDDI’s LTE-M networks. The module is the first product based on UBX-R5, u‑blox’s own low-power wide-area (LPWA) chipset, to achieve operator certification in Japan.
Delta Line continues to expand its industry-leading range of motion control solutions with the launch of two 115 mm frameless BLDC motor designs. High torque, smooth motion, and compact design make these motors ideal for robot joints.
The Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems IPMS offers ready-made, platform-independent IP core modules. With IP modules, developers can quickly adopt complete functional areas in standard products such as SoCs, microcontrollers, FPGAs and ASICs.
