Industrial robots are essential for modern manufacturing, but manufacturing output doesn’t always match automation levels. For example, China is the world’s largest manufacturing nation, but it only has the 15th highest industrial robot density (187 per 10,000 workers). These were the 10 most automated countries in 2019 according to the International Federation of Robotics. The… Read more »

The International Federation of Robotics (IFR) keeps tabs on how the world uses industrial robots. They’re the resource to reference when you need to know which countries are installing new factory robots, and how many robots they’re installing. So it makes sense that the IFR has identified a list of industrial robot trends to watch… Read more »

Your Indramat servo motors are gassed. They’ve put in two or three decades of reliable service, but those lifetime lubricated bearings that are only supposed to last 10 years finally need replacing. Buying a new Indramat motor isn’t your only option, though. In fact, Indramat factory repair is often the best thing you can do… Read more »

Imagine diagnosing Indramat errors without a diagnostic message. Is there a problem with the servo drive? Is your motor causing the issue? Maybe it’s the control.

There are plants that have used the same servos since… Read more »

Every single part of your Indramat motion control system is important, but some parts are more impressive than others. For example, a whirring little servo motor draws more attention than an unassuming H1 status indicator. However, that Indramat H1 display is every bit as vital as the motor that sets your whole system in motion…. Read more »
