In the logistics and warehouse sector, efficiency and precision are paramount, and one technology that’s making a significant impact is Building Information Modelling (BIM) design coordination. Stertil, a leading designer, manufacturer and installer of loading bay solutions, is at the forefront of utilising BIM to streamline project workflows, offering clients smarter and more efficient solutions. Building Information Modelling, or BIM, is transforming how construction and logistics projects are executed by providing a collaborative platform for stakeholders.
The new World Robotics report recorded 4,281,585 units operating in factories worldwide – an increase of 10%. Annual installations exceeded half a million units for the third consecutive year. By region, 70% of all newly deployed robots 2023 were installed in Asia, 17% in Europe and 10% in the Americas, according to the International Federation of Robotics.
Gaining popularity in many industrial premises are FATH eTRIKE Scooters, which the company says are a perfect size solution for a range of applications. The new look three-wheeled electric personnel scooters cover a sweet spot in commercial e-mobility options and are an easy to integrate intra-facility transport solution. The trikes are offered with a host of standard accessories for comfort and safety and are available in standard and longer wheelbase versions, both of which have the ability to be easily customised.
A new white paper co-authored by ABB and Porsche Consulting details how robotic automation in surface treatment applications can transform productivity and profitability in the electronics manufacturing industry. Titled “Capitalize surface finishing with technology empowered robotic solutions”, the paper encourages manufacturers to embrace the latest advances in robotic machining to increase production output and sustainability through reduced waste while cutting costs. Fierce market competition and low profit margins are among the most critical challenges facing consumer electronics manufacturers today.
As the rise of e-commerce places increasing demand on warehouses, robotics will become ever more important in meeting that demand.
