Comau introduces its RACER-5-0.80 (Racer-5 COBOT), a new paradigm in collaborative robotics which meets the growing demand for fast, cost-effective cobots that can be used in restricted spaces and in different application areas. Countering the belief that collaborative robots are slow, Racer-5 COBOT is a 6-axis articulated robot that can work at industrial speed up to 6 m/s. With a 5 kg payload and 809 mm reach, it ensures optimal industrial efficiency while granting the added benefit of safe, barrier-free operations. Furthermore, the cobot can instantly switch from a collaborative mode to full speed when operators are not around, letting its 0.03 mm repeatability and advanced movement fluidity deliver unmatched production rates.

A future-proof, open standard formfactor of rugged industrial grade design with up to 15 years longevity and software portability through NXP® Semiconductors eIQ AI SDK
A consolidated know-how, developed from more than 50 years of activity in the plastics sector serving one of the world’s leading manufacturers of blown film production plants: this is the starting point for the collaboration between Gefran – the Italian multinational group specialised in the design and production of sensors, industrial process control systems, electric drives and automation components – and Macchi S.p.A.
With the Canadian packaging industry estimated to grow to approximately 50,000 million units by 2021, the sector has huge impact on Canada’s economic future.
HCK series, in addition to the availability of standard executions, can be furtherly customisable thanks to the modularity of the elements that compose the new indicators: several material combinations, different standard lengths, furtherly customisable and executions destined to specific usages which require the use of oils and glycol-based solutions, largely used in cooling systems.
AKASOL PARTNERS WITH FRAUNHOFER RESEARCH INSTITUTION is partnering with the Fraunhofer Research Institution for Materials Recycling and Resource Strategies IWKS on a new funding project: As part of their joint project, “Bætter Recycle – Battery recycling and disassembly for eMobility and optimization through recycling-friendly design,” the two partners are working to develop automated recycling processes for the eMobility industry.
