…well-established philosophy of remaining brand-agnostic for hardware. Source: RoboDK Ease of use and safety at the heart of the process Equally important, RoboDK said is ease of use and safety of its products. TwinTool runs directly from RoboDK, making the bridge between the robot controller and the sensor. No programming skills are required, claimed the company. Users only need RoboDK simulation software, a robot, its tool (spherical or conical), and a sensor. Singularities and collisions are avoided, and trajectories automatically calculated. “We have created a user-friendly wizard to ensure that the calibration is done correctly and safely,” said RoboDK software…

…TMS. It’s about the speed of implementation and the ease of use that needs to be in line with the end user’s changed expectations—and often limited resources—that support the system. On the other side, it’s the partnerships with carrier networks, digital freight players, transportation visibility platforms, and advanced analytics platforms that prove to be more valuable. We even see companies replace a more complex TMS with a simpler TMS as complexity is replaced by ‘ease of use,’ and hence the TMS is used more and better. Compare it to a car. You can buy an expensive, complex car like a…

…number of options before choosing Ati Motors. Ati Motors' Sherpa autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) stood out because of their ease of use and the Bengaluru, India-based company's strong customer support through a robotics-as-a-service (RaaS) model. The AMRs have an electric drive train and a custom-built autonomy stack. Unlike automated guided vehicles (AGVs), Ati said its AMRs require less infrastructure and allow for more sophisticated fleet management. Not only did Hyundai Motor India's deployment of its first Sherpas reduce dependence on manual operations, but it also led the company to consider adding more robots for different manufacturing processes.

…added that it has designed the cobot's interface for ease of use, and its plug-and-play concept makes it accessible to SMEs. The robot is suitable for industrial applications including assembly, quality assurance, palletizing, and pick-and-place tasks, said Kassow. Its seventh axis, or “wrist joint,” and safety-compliant design allow for human-robot collaboration, the company said. Users can move the relatively lightweight KR1018 to perform tasks in different areas of a facility. The seventh axis gives the KR1018 a small footprint of 160 x 160 mm (6.2 x 6.2 in.), maneuverability, and an increased range of motion, said the company. It can…
