Challenges of the robotics industry
Junji J. Tsuda Page 14 | 21 June 2018
Simplification – critical to SMEs, but also important for large Global Manufacturers
• Easier to use robots with more intuitive programming• Standardisation and consistency across global brands
Digitalisation - Big Data allowing people to make better decisions about factory operations
• Industry 4.0, linking the real-life factory with a virtual one• Vision and sensing devices, coupled with analytics platforms• Machine Learning/AI
Challenges of the robotics industry
Junji J. Tsuda Page 15 | 21 June 2018
Collaboration - humans and robots in shared workplaces without fences opens up new possibilities and concepts in production and in non-industrial areas
• Robots assist humans in the workplace • More flexibility in the production process – Increase of productivity Shop floor flexibility – not defined by cages New processes to manage low-volume high-mix production
• Cobots in warehouses to manage increasing order volume
Robots and AI – Vision and Reality
