The automation experts at Omron Robotics and Safety Technologies have added three new models to their portfolio of collaborative robots in the TM S series. Another new feature is a comprehensive software update that helps manufacturers to respond to the shortage of skilled workers and growing demands for flexible, highly variable production. The TM30S (66 pounds payload), TM20S (44 pounds payload) and TM6S (13 pounds payload) models extend the payload and reach capacities of the TM S series for applications such as palletizing, machine loading and precision handling. The TMflow 2.22 software update ensures that the robots remain easy to program and manage and comes with an updated no-code programming environment.

Palletizing And Depalletizing of Multi-Bins

Polyplan has introduced the PolyDeStack robot system for automated de-/palletizing. With just one gripper, cardboard boxes, KLT and EPP containers as well as pallet lids can be reliably detected and stacked or unstacked. In combination with the latest addition to Polyplan's logistics product portfolio—the PolyCUT robot system for the automated removal of strapping bands from pallets—this enables fully automated pallet handling in warehouses and logistics centers. The robot system is rounded off by the new functional extension for automatic position detection, identification and removal of VDA master and other global transport labels.

Physical AI Robotics For Fully Autonomous Fulfillment Processes

Locus Robotics has launched the fully autonomous fulfillment system Locus Array. It combines mobile robotics, an integrated robotic arm for order picking and AI-supported perception with autonomous execution to map end-to-end processes without manual intervention. The system enables parallel processing of orders and bundling of work directly in the aisle as well as picking, storage, induction, delivery, slotting and replenishment in one system, thus reducing the manual workload by 90 percent. The system can be implemented within a few weeks without having to adapt the existing infrastructure or carry out complex conversions.

7th Axis Made of Aluminum for Cobots And Lightweight Robot Systems

Indunorm Bewegungstechnik GmbH is strategically expanding its portfolio in linear motion technology: The 7th axis, which has been tried and tested in our own handling systems for many years, is now available as a stand-alone product in a newly developed aluminum version in four sizes. It is specifically designed for cobots as well as small and medium-sized robot systems. Users benefit from a high degree of flexibility: the 7th axis is compatible with all common robot brands and can be retrofitted. Already installed axes can be extended with additional segments without replacing existing systems. In terms of design, Indunorm relies on recirculating ball bearing linear guides from THK. Compared to roller guides, these enable higher load capacities in a compact installation space.

Higher Loads, Optimum Flexibility

With the 55 and 77 pounds payload variants of the new generation of the KR Cybertech family, Kuka 2026 is expanding its portfolio with two flexible, high-performance robot models. For example, the repeat accuracy has been improved with the same footprint. The two new robot models are not only ready for AI applications, but also for ISO 10218:2025. They provide support for handling, unloading, pick-and-place tasks and testing, for example. The two robots have a completely newly developed central hand for this purpose. The solid wrist design ensures improved rigidity, which is advantageous for handling, fast pick-and-place tasks or, in particular, applications with additional process forces. The optimized path accuracy also meets the strict requirements of demanding applications, for example in the field of photovoltaics. With protection class IP67 as standard, the hand is also robust against dust and splash water.

Mobile Manipulation for Intralogistics

Neura Mobile Robots has presented an application for mobile manipulation in intralogistics for the first time. At the heart of the application is the combination of the X Move 1200 driverless transport platform from Neura Mobile Robots and the Maira M cognitive cobot from Neura Robotics. The integrated solution not only makes it possible to transport material, but also to grip it directly, make it available and store and retrieve it. For the first time, users can fully automate transport and handling processes without manual transfers. This reduces process times, lowers error rates and significantly increases system availability. At the same time, the solution remains flexible and can be scalably integrated into existing infrastructures. In contrast to traditional AGV or AMR solutions, which are primarily responsible for transportation, the solution integrates cognitive gripping and handling processes directly into the material flow.

New Standard in Performance And Efficiency

Fruitcore Robotics is launching two new 6-axis industrial robots, the Horst 600 G2 and Horst 800 G2. The second generation of the Horst platform delivers up to 40 percent shorter cycle times, a doubling of the payload and significantly more working space. The new G2 robots are based on a revised mechanical platform with an integral design without sheet metal covers. This has improved repair and maintenance by making maintenance-relevant components easily accessible and simple to replace. Fruitcore's patented, output-side encoder technology continues to ensure that the robots remain precise over their service life without reteaching. This is reinforced by new drivers, revised bearings and new precision gears with up to 400 percent less backlash.
