Real Madrid official ambassador and football legend Roberto Carlos visited Linglong Tire‘s Zhaoyuan production base, gathering with nearly 900 Linglong Tire channel partners for a three-day “Legendary Journey”. This event marked a significant offline milestone since the global partnership between Linglong Tire and Real Madrid was established in 2024, signaling the collaboration’s evolution from brand […]

Raise Robotics has unveiled plans to develop shipbuilding robots specialized in coating applications. The systems are designed to coat large surfaces autonomously without crawling on them, and to operate with the certifications required for explosive atmospheres, including engineering toward ATEX Zone 2 requirements used in paint halls and other hazardous coating environments.  The ‘bottleneck is […]

A defect found at final inspection is rarely a final-inspection problem. It usually signals that a process changed earlier, continued unchecked, and produced a growing batch of nonconforming parts. How Data-Driven Quality Control Prevents Costly Defects in Modern Manufacturing comes down to timing. Data-driven quality control identifies variation while adjustment is still possible, turning quality […]

Not every factory upgrade needs to be a full robotic overhaul. For plants that have been running the same lines for a decade or more, the idea of “automation” can sound expensive, disruptive, and a little bit risky to be honest. But bringing automation into an older facility doesn’t have to mean tearing everything out […]

As industries seek to reduce their environmental footprint without sacrificing efficiency, bioethanol has emerged as a practical alternative to many conventional petroleum-based solvents. Its renewable origins, broad industrial applications, and cleaner production profile make it an attractive choice for companies committed to responsible manufacturing. Businesses exploring Ohana Chem Co. extraction solutions are also recognizing the […]

The textile industry is growing every year. There is an increased demand for custom T-shirts for businesses, sports teams, schools, events, and personal wear. Due to this, clothing companies require faster and better printing techniques to produce shirts. This is where an automatic T-shirt printing machine can play a large role. These machines support businesses […]

Hexagon Robotics and Schaeffler, a motion technology company, has announced the next milestone in their strategic collaboration as AEON enters Schaeffler’s Humanoid Gym in Germany, marking the next step towards the planned deployment of at least 1,000 AEON humanoids in the coming years. The Humanoid Gym provides a Train-Validate-Deploy model in a dedicated industrial environment. Schaeffler […]

The Association for Advancing Automation (A3) and the Mahoning County Career & Technical Center (MCCTC) will offer no-cost robotics and automation training across Ohio through a $499,000 workforce grant that will help the state’s residents build skills for increasingly technology-driven careers. Awarded through Ohio’s Individual Microcredential Assistance Program (IMAP), the grant will support approximately 3,000 […]

As robots become more intelligent, autonomous and connected, much of the attention naturally falls on increasingly powerful AI models. But underneath those models is an increasingly complex collection of sensors, processors, control systems and security hardware that must operate reliably – often within strict limits on power consumption, size and heat. Lattice Semiconductor is one […]

Industrial networks used to have a fairly contained job: connect a few controllers, operator stations and plant systems, then keep them running for years. That model is changing quickly. A production floor may now include collaborative robots, machine-vision cameras, automated guided vehicles, connected tooling, industrial PCs and cloud-connected analytics platforms – all producing and consuming […]

Motion technology company Schaeffler is expanding its humanoid robotics product portfolio and bringing formed strain wave gearboxes to market. Strain wave gearboxes are key components in actuators which make up around half of the total costs of manufacturing a humanoid. Strain wave gearboxes can precisely transmit motion with a high torque capacity by utilizing a […]

By Joseph F. Krause, co-founder and CEO, Radical AI The next great semiconductor breakthrough will come down to new materials, not just engineering. The field is running into multiple walls of physics: the minimum wavelength of visible light, carrying current with less than an electron, electrical insulators with high thermal transport. As linewidths shrink below […]

Picture a warehouse floor covered in loose boxes, mismatched containers, and inventory stacked wherever it fits that day. Finding a single part in that environment can eat up an entire shift, and the cost of that lost time rarely shows up on a single line item, even though it drains productivity constantly. The fix is […]

New A3 data shows second-quarter growth across semiconductors/electronics, automotive components, food and consumer goods, metals and life sciences North American companies ordered 8,940 robots valued at $622 million in the second quarter of 2026, according to new data released by the Association for Advancing Automation (A3). Compared to the second quarter of 2025, this represents […]

3D printing is gradually becoming part of everyday creativity. From personalized designs and creative projects to prototypes and physical models, it gives more people the ability to turn digital ideas into real objects. At the same time, AI is changing how these ideas are created, making 3D modeling faster and more accessible. However, generating a […]

Multiway Robotics has completed the deployment of an intelligent warehouse automation system for a manufacturing company in Malaysia, combining autonomous forklifts with warehouse management software to improve storage capacity and material handling. The project supports more than 5,000 storage locations across raw material warehouses, finished goods storage, material preparation areas and quarantine zones. According to […]

Hirebotics, a provider of collaborative robot solutions for the metal fabrication industry, has announced that data center infrastructure company Tate, has deployed a fleet of 58 Hirebotics Cobot Welder systems across manufacturing facilities in Arkansas, Virginia and Kentucky. According to a new Hirebotics case study, Tate has achieved a 12x increase in per-welder throughput on […]

As governments and private companies accelerate plans for commercial space stations, orbital manufacturing and eventually lunar infrastructure, one question is becoming increasingly important: who – or what – will do the work in space?  Brooklyn-based startup Icarus Robotics believes much of that work will be carried out by intelligent robotic workers. Founded in 2024, the […]

Digitizing the shop floor has moved from a nice-to-have to a genuine competitive need for small and mid-sized manufacturers. Picking the right software, though, is a real fork in the road that can shape a company’s operational future. The question underneath it all is simple: are you solving today’s execution headaches, or building a foundation […]

Matthäi Schlüsselfertigbau, a subsidiary of the German construction giant Matthäi, has established its own construction 3D printing division. The decision followed the successful completion of the company’s new two-story headquarters of 364 m² (3,920 SF) in Selsingen, Lower Saxony, printed with a COBOD BOD2 construction 3D printer and occupied in July 2026. Matthäi Schlüsselfertigbau has […]
