Increasing efficiency is a requirement that applies not only to the production process, but also to upstream and downstream warehouses. An example from the beverage industry shows what modern automated guided vehicles (AGVs) can achieve in this context.

The exploration of Mars and the moon is a great dream for mankind. The EU also wants to play its part in space exploration. An exciting project has now been successfully tested in the Moroccan desert.

Augsburg-based robotics specialist German Bionic has developed 'Cray +', an exoskeleton model designed for use in disaster areas. It is a further development of the 'Cray X' model used in industry.

Reiku offers two universal systems designed for different load heights for attaching cables and wires to the round, smooth arms of cobots (robots that collaborate with humans without additional protection).

The Melfa-FR robots from Mitsubishi Electric - highly dynamic scara and articulated arm robots - are a further development of the F series with increased overall performance.

A new feature from Stäubli is a Labview connection: The current DigiMetrix robot library can be used to integrate the six-axis robots of the TX and TX2 series as well as the TS SCARA and the Fast picker TP80 into the National Instruments platform.

DC motors cannot always be optimally integrated into a structure; space and weight play a major role in robot joints, for example, and standard solutions reach their limits.
The CNC-integrated robot controller E°EXC 88 from Eckelmann makes it possible to freely combine CNC, robot controller and motion control.

At SPS IPC Drives 2018, Microsoft is showcasing its own version of the robot operating system ROS. This enables companies to develop robotics applications that run on Windows and harmonize with Azure services.
