Rethink Robotics The Real Deal with Collaborative Robots
June 3, 2014 - Schaumburg, IL
 
  
Come see how real applications were implemented by real companies

 

You've heard about Baxter and other collaborative manufacturing robots. Well, if you haven't seen Baxter lately, you haven't seen Baxter.  The first and most famous collaborative robot  will be in Schaumburg on June 3rd, with a just-announced software release, intera 2.1 and a real-world look at how Baxter can be a competitive advantage for your company.

 

Our program is called The Real Deal with Collaborative Robots, and it's designed to provide a deep dive into the specifics of where collaborative robots work well, where they don't, who's using them today, and what considerations you need to make before putting one in your plant.

Advantech Launches New Touch-Panel Computer
15" Touch-panel with Intel 4th Generation Core i3 Processor

 
Advantech's new 15" TCP-1582H touch-panel computer is the first of its type to feature the much heralded iDoor Technology, a faster low power processor and a multitude of IO ports.
 
Advantech's new iDoor technology is a new modular way of adding versatile functionality to give system integrators the flexibility to choose the functions that they need without purchasing devices that have excess costs and functions that they'll never use.  With Isolated DI/O ports, Power over Ethernet, Profibus and CANOpen modules iDoor Technology gives a cost efficient solution to increasing the functionality of the TPC-1582H.
 
The TPC-1582H is the first in the TPC range to use Intel's 4th Generation Core i3 processor, which provides an additional 15% increase in speed compared to 3rd Generation processors and faster also refreshes graphic images 30% faster. All of these benefits are achieved while maintaining low power consumption and enhanced reliability.
