How Packing Machines are Making Their Way into Garden Shops

August 11, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Packaging machines are increasingly making their way into garden shops. All thanks to the numerous advantages they offer and their cost-effective nature.

First and foremost, packaging machines can help increase the packing efficiency of the process.

They can do this by automating many of the tasks involved in packing products. This includes tasks such as loading products onto the packaging machine, sealing the packages, and labeling them. [Read more…] about How Packing Machines are Making Their Way into Garden Shops

SICK unveils new smart service web application for better data visualization

June 15, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Effective and timely condition monitoring is essential to the success of any factory or logistics center. But how do you accurately monitor machinery to know when maintenance is required before a fault occurs?

To solve this challenge, SICK has launched a new product called Monitoring Box that enables access to sensor data for cloud-based condition monitoring.

Monitoring Box is a new Smart Service web application from SICK. It visualizes status data from SICK sensors, offering customers added value from previously unused sensor data. [Read more…] about SICK unveils new smart service web application for better data visualization

Switzerland’s largest trade fair celebrates its 20th anniversary with a promising edition

May 22, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

In September 2021, EPHJ was the first show to reopen in Switzerland after the health crisis. A daring risk welcomed by the high-precision players who attended and by the visitors whose quality and qualification were recognised by 98 percent of the exhibitors according to the satisfaction survey conducted at the end of this 2021 edition.

Only 8 months after the last edition, the 20th edition of the EPHJ is once again promising. The number of exhibiting companies has risen by 26 percent compared to September 2021 to reach 700 exhibitors to date.

The easing of international travel is confirmed with 15 countries represented among the exhibitors, including the United States, and a trend towards the first returns of foreign visitors is expected.

Robotics-as-a-Service market growing in the logistics industry

April 25, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Between 6 percent and 8 percent of total revenue in the mobile robotics for logistics market comes from Robotics-as-a-Service, according to research company IDTechEx.

X-as-a-Service business models are now commonplace in the industry, involving the delivery of a specific service rather than a product to perform the service.

The most significant change in models such as this is the replacement of a proportionally very large up-front product price with a billing structure that is based on the services performed as the product itself. [Read more…] about Robotics-as-a-Service market growing in the logistics industry
