April 2, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Long gone are the days of hiring by impression. You used to set up an interview and chat with the prospects after you have read over their application and resume.

Many times, you would not even feel the need to call on references because you get a gut feeling that the person in front of you will be a good fit, and a great asset to your business.

Cobots and no code: Robotics for everyone

March 30, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Almost three months before the start of automatica, which takes place from June 21 to 24 at the Munich Exhibition Center, one thing is certain: never before has there been such a wide range of collaborative robots as this year. And they are easier to use than ever.

With cobots, this is already possible thanks to simple programming options. [Read more…] about Cobots and no code: Robotics for everyone
