Manufacturers in every industry are adopting robotic automation at an accelerating rate.  The investment required for automation is often significant and comes with a host of options.  What type or size of robot should be selected? What throughput can be achieved through this new system? Will the work cell fit into my production line? All of these questions can be answered with robot simulation software. 

The requirements in gear manufacturing are increasing dramatically which delivers a dilemma between productivity (scale) and flexibility (scope) of today’s technical solutions. Lead times need to be shortened in order to increase productivity while batch sizes are getting smaller and individual geometric features (topological modifications) push the need for intelligent support by manufacturing simulation and closed-loop approaches. Learn this and more at the International Conference on Gear Production (Garching, Germany). 

The goal of the AGMA Emerging Technology committees is to identify, investigate and inform AGMA members of emerging technologies that may disrupt or significantly impact the power transmission industry.

Automatica (Munich, Germany) is a trade fair for smart automation and robotics. The show brings together all key technologies in the international technology hub of Munich for an exchange between industrial, research and political representatives.
