How Premium Rubber Tracks Decrease Downtime and Reduce Costs

by

Robotics and automation have revolutionized several industry branches in the 21st century, like agriculture, manufacturing, medicine, military operations, and construction.

Automated robots are reliable and durable machines that produce at a high-performance level, so they need high-quality designs, manufacturing processes, and equipment.

Robots can mimic and exceed human capabilities like strength, precision, productivity, and durability. However, human leg articulations and movement are aspects that robots don’t mimic 100% yet. Most rely on tracks to displace. For mobile robots, high-quality rubber tracks are a must. [Read more…] about How Premium Rubber Tracks Decrease Downtime and Reduce Costs

NextGenAM 3D printing pilot successfully completed

by

The “NextGenAM” project, what began as a vision in May 2017, has now reached a successful conclusion.

The aim was to develop a digitalised next-generation manufacturing line to produce aluminium components for the automotive and aerospace sectors significantly more cost-effectively than is currently possible.

The successful outcome was that, in terms of the overall production process, manufacturing costs could be reduced by up to 50 percent compared with existing 3D printing systems.
