How to pick, purchase and program your first industrial robot

July 17, 2020 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

By Nigel Smith, CEO of TM Robotics

Robots aren’t always given a favourable representation in pop culture. In Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, homicidal supercomputer HAL 9000 demonstrates how a robot could conspire against its human colleagues.

Thankfully, industrial robots aren’t quite as menacing. Here, Nigel Smith, managing director of Toshiba Machine distributor, TM Robotics, gives advice to manufacturers to make their first robotic investment.

Pop culture aside, robots don’t disappoint. After their first industrial robot installation, manufacturers come back to TM Robotics time and time again to add further automation to their factories. [Read more…] about How to pick, purchase and program your first industrial robot

July 17, 2020 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Sensor and automation specialist ifm and the IIoT expert CloudRail have agreed a strategic partnership to pool their skills to improve their positions on the strongly growing market for professional IIoT and cloud solutions. (See video below.)

Industry 4.0, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) or digitisation – there are many terms to describe the inexorable trend of networking machines, processes and people. What they all have in common is that they refer to interdisciplinary processes.

Felix Kollmar, CEO of CloudRail, says: “The IIoT has long ago ceased to be an exclusive topic of operation technology (OT).” [Read more…] about ifm and CloudRail agree strategic partnership to provide IIoT solutions

How to Find High-Quality Products on Aliexpress

July 17, 2020 by Polly Leave a Comment

Aliexpress is one of the most popular sites people use to start their dropshipping business. Their products are shipped worldwide to over 200 countries and regions, and their site available in five languages.

However, being such a popular site comes with drawbacks. One drawback is that it is hard to find which products are actually good-quality items instead of cheap bootlegs that will break within a week.

This makes it hard for new entrepreneurs to find products that their customers will love. And selling low-quality products leads to low reviews, which can translate to fewer clients. [Read more…] about How to Find High-Quality Products on Aliexpress
