…Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing (ARM) Institute project led by Siemens and FedEx, Theobald noted. Version 2.0 establishes a mission communication application programming interface (API). It is intended to prevent too many robots from trying to use a single optimized route at the same time. Other features are left to fleet management software, said the panelists. After years of talk about the need to manage heterogeneous fleets, why are standards efforts moving forward now? “We believe a rising tide will lift all boats,” replied Walker, co-founder of Waypoint Robotics, now part of Locus Robotics. “Locus has deployed more AMRs than almost…

…from Watertown, Mass., to Waltham, Mass., later this year. Siemens also explained the value of simulation and 3D printing for industrial use. Educational institutions share robot research The University of Massachusetts (UMass) Lowell showed Digit, a bipedal robot from Agility Robotics Inc. While Tesla Inc. had revealed the latest version of its Optimus humanoid last week, Digit is already available for research and warehouse use. Agility Robotics' Digit humanoid, displayed in UMass Lowell's area, is designed for handling boxes and parcels.

…collaborate on materials. The fact that companies like GE, Siemens, BASF and HP were represented at AMUG is sign that the larger manufacturing world is taking additive manufacturing seriously. Simulation software providers are also taking the technology seriously and working on the considerable challenges involved in predicting what will happen when a particular design using a particular material is 3D printed in a particular machine. “Part of what we've found from our customers is that it's not enough to have a best piece of simulation,” says Brent Stucker, director of additive manufacturing at ANSYS. “They want simulation in the loop…

…Amazon Web Services, Cisco, John Deere, Medtronic, PepsiCo, and Siemens, NVIDIA said. To accelerate AI application development and deployments at the edge, NVIDIA has also created a Generative AI Lab for Jetson developers to use with the latest open-source generative AI models. Generative AI could transform industries Generative AI can ease development by enabling users to provide more intuitive prompts and change AI models, said NVIDIA. Those models can be more flexible in detecting, segmenting, tracking, searching, and even reprogramming anything, it said. In addition, models created with generative AI can outperform traditional convolutional neural network (CNN)-based models, NVIDIA noted.…

…with traditional CNC machining, casting and injection molding processes. Siemens Digital Industries Software has incorporated generative design and topology optimization capabilities into its NX platform to make the capabilities more accessible while adding an array of features designed to help teams optimize AM output. NX’s convergent modeling technology delivers unified 3D modeling, allowing engineers to easily collaborate and work between facet and B-rep data, creating a more integrated design workflow that results in lighter weight components that don’t sacrifice design intent or integrity. Additionally, the company’s Simcenter 3D AM Process Simulation suite and the AM Path Optimizer integrated into NX…
