11 industrial giants that could spin off their robotics divisions

April 23, 2025 by Sam Francis

When it was announced in March that ABB would spin off its robotics and discrete automation business into a separate entity, it marked a significant turning point for the industry.

While pure-play robotics firms have long captured investor enthusiasm – think Fanuc or iRobot – most robotics businesses remain buried inside sprawling conglomerates. But for how much longer?

As capital markets reward clarity and focus, robotics divisions trapped inside multi-industry giants may be next in line for separation. Below are 10 companies that could follow ABB’s lead. [Read more…] about 11 industrial giants that could spin off their robotics divisions

Mitsubishi Electric Automation has introduced a low-profile direct drive motor to enable direct and accurate control of a servo motor.

Machine designers and end users looking for direct control of a load without traditional transmission components will be interested in the new Low-Profile Direct Drive Motors (TM-RG2M / TM-RU2M), says Mitsubishi.

Built with speed and precision in mind, it provides a smaller footprint and allows for more compact, efficient, and precise machines than those typically built using rotary servo motors. Applications that are well suited for the new motor include coating and vapor deposition systems, index tables, tool changers, rotary material handling robots, and rotary axis on XYθ inspection positioning systems.  [Read more…] about Mitsubishi introduces low-profile direct drive for direct control of a servo motor
