At this year’s edition of the Advanced Factories fair, the Eurecat technology centre will be showing a solution developed with the company Jansa to automate the assembly process for metal parts in construction industry beams, which can be applied to collaborative robotics. The project makes it possible to plan the robot’s trajectory in real time using [...]
The European Sharework project led by the Eurecat technology centre has tested a new smart system for safe and ergonomic collaboration between robots and workers in industry with a view to enhancing the working conditions of operators. The project has developed flexible software made up of 14 technological modules “to furnish robots with the intelligence [...]
The road to electrification requires industrial transformation at all levels. For this to happen, innovation is key. In Martorell at SEAT’s Workshop 9, a drone flies above the production lines. It’s the testing phase of a pioneering new project between SEAT S.A. and the Eurecat technology centre to explore the possibility of using drones to [...]
CoE in Tourism Innovation businesses and organisations are jointly spearheading innovative projects for more resilient and sustainable tourism. They include a pilot study scrutinising data from booking engines to learn about the profile of visitors to Catalan tourist attractions and a project which will identify and put forward the best tools for optimal talent management in [...]
The Eurecat technology centre has developed a new system to predict the evolution of corrosion and meticulously schedule maintenance tasks. This has involved combining its expertise in identifying corrosion mechanisms with regular monitoring of hard-to-reach areas using drones and data analytics powered by Artificial Intelligence. Corrosion monitoring is a “crucial aspect for selecting the most suitable materials [...]
Kivnon, a firm specialising in developing innovative mobile robotics, is to embed Eurecat autonomous mobility technology in some of its fleets. This technology is designed to make factories more flexible and smarter to adapt to changes in production processes characteristic of advanced industrial environments. The new solution involves building new sensors into Kivnon’s mobile robots consisting of [...]
Robotnik and the Eurecat technology centre have developed an extremely modular, autonomous and collaborative land robot intended for autonomous material transport in industry and construction with a design which delivers advanced human-robot collaboration. Devised as part of the European COBOLLEAGUE project, the robot addresses autonomous navigation in outdoor industrial settings characterised by uneven terrain and a variety of static and dynamic obstacles. It is a [...]
The Eurecat technological centre (a member of Tecnio) combines technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, robotics and the Internet of Things (IoT) in multiple fields, like water management, industry, the agro food sector, energy, mobility and aeronautics, to contribute to the ability of companies to take more informed decisions to increase their competitiveness. To present the [...]
The Eurecat technology centre (a member of Tecnio) is to trial the use of drones for monitoring vineyards, as part of the AgROBOfood Digital Innovation Hub initiative. AgROBOfood is a new European network designed to foster the sharing of information, infrastructure and best practice, with the aim of promoting the effective adoption of robotic technologies in [...]
The Eurecat technology centre (a member of Tecnio) coordinates the European project Assets4Rail, which will test the use of drones to monitor the condition of rail infrastructure, such as bridges and tunnels, over the next three years. The aim of the project is to enable the detection of potential flaws while improving safety. In the [...]
