By “intelligent evolution,” I’m not talking about the simple adoption of automation and forms of machine learning, sort of a set-it-and-forget-it approach.
Manufacturing has evolved significantly with intelligent machines like robotics and automation working with humans. AI and predictive analytics help reduce equipment failures and optimize systems in real time, marking a major shift in traditional manufacturing practices toward a smarter future.
Xiris Automation announced the release of its NIR (Near Infrared) Weld Camera System with a remarkable 140+ dB High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging capability with advanced NIR illumination that can be synchronized to the camera.

When you buy a cobot, you may have just one application in mind, but leading cobots are platforms for almost any number of quality applications - and not just quality applications.
I've noticed that operators and inspection workers often realize upon first meeting collaborative robots (cobots) that they aren't replacements for human labor. Instead, cobots signal a shift from traditional automation in quality and inspection, providing distinct advantages over traditional robots.
