ABB and B&R launch first fully integrated machine-centric robotics solution

Found in News and Content

…save floor space. More user-friendly programming is another decisive advantage that comes from combining robotics with machine control. Instead of programming a robotics application in one development environment and a machine application in another, there will only be one application and one development environment. This will help to reduce development times significantly. With the ready-made software components of mapp Technology,…


Productive Robotics introduces full line of teachable cobots
