Many people think that robotic screwdriving isn’t a good idea because automated screw driving seems like a difficult, costly, and expensive thing to manage and achieve.
They think that these automated screw driving machines are huge machines that can manage only a small set of operations and are suitable only for high-volume manufacturing businesses and not for small to medium-sized businesses, however, that is not the case.
Robotics screwdriving provides a way through which any business can automate the task of screwdriving and the best thing is that collaborative robots can be used for different processes and situations, even for high-mix, low-volume manufacturing. [Read more…] about What Are the Benefits of Collaborative Robot Screwdriving?
Artificial Intelligence has transformed many industries and test automation is no more an exception.
However, although test automation has replaced error-prone, time-consuming and fragile manual testing practice to a greater extent, still much more needs to be done.
With ERP vendors rolling out new updates on a monthly or quarterly basis, QA teams are facing tremendous pressure to keep their ERP systems up to date. [Read more…] about Evolution of Test Automation with Artificial Intelligence
