Hi Colleague ,

Welcome to this week’s Robotize Update.

Headlining this week’s robotics news is the acquisition of Melbourne based Automation Consultants & Technical Services (ACTS) by Sydney’s Machinery Automation & robotics (MAR). As a result of this acquisition, MAR has obtained a Melbourne based office and greater presence across the rest of Australia. Find out more here.

Also take a look the following article from MAR about a successful packaging solution for a major Australian Manufacturer and Exporter.

Headland Automation brings us a case study on how an automotive supplier is delivering components “Just in time” with just a 2 hour lead time using Kuka Robots.

AZ-Pak Systems also deliver a Fuji-Ace Robotic Palletizing Solution for Garden Products & Fertilizers in Queensland. Find out More

If you thought the pancake picking video previously featured on robotize was impressive, check out the solution for Crumpets!

And last but not least consider the control required to allow the hip hop robot to keep its balance. We think it’s impressive although we can’t quite figure out a useful application for a dancing robot in your factories yet.

As always, make sure you share the news…. Thanks for reading,

The team at Robotize.
