High initial costs, implementation complexity, and lengthy return on investment: these misconceptions remain the primary barriers to artificial intelligence adoption in manufacturing. While most technology providers promote cloud-based solutions, an alternative approach is emerging: the gradual implementation of AI, starting at the component level. This strategy enables manufacturers of all sizes to harness AI potential effectively without significant upfront investment.

Mitsubishi Electric has launched its MELFA RH-10CRH and RH-20CRH SCARA robots, providing manufacturers with greater flexibility in adopting digital manufacturing while addressing skilled workforce shortages. These new robots enhance industrial automation through high-speed operation, easy installation, and exceptional efficiency. Compact and lightweight, they are ideal for manufacturers aiming to boost productivity while navigating space and weight constraints.

Enhancing efficiency and reducing cost for safety in industrial automation

Mitsubishi Electric Europe announced the launch of the MELSEC iQ-R safety local IO modules, featuring the RX40NC6S-TS and RY48PT20S-TS. These components are designed to enhance the lineup, increase efficiency and reduce safety costs in industrial automation.

AI-powered visual inspection software revolutionising quality as-surance across industries and configurable without programming knowledge. Yes, it exists. It's called MELSOFT VIXIO.

Mitsubishi Electric introduced the integration of Iconics and EcoAdviser platforms, a groundbreaking solution designed to revolutionize energy management with Artificial Intelligence capabilities. This combination is set to drive operational efficiency, sustainability, and significant cost savings for businesses across various sectors.

Mitsubishi Electric technologies have enabled the development of innovative composting machines that can turn food waste into high-quality fertiliser in just 24 hours. This solution responds to the global problem of waste, in particular food waste, which constitutes about 30% of landfill waste. For Radisson Blu Scandinavia, this technology enables the daily processing of food waste from restaurants, room service, and other food-related operations.

The applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in industrial environments are rapidly developing, presenting a number of opportunities to manufacturers. Not only can companies leverage machine learning to improve productivity and performance, they can also use it as a tool to enhance their experts’ know-how and support knowledge transfer across an enterprise. These last aspects, sometimes overlooked by companies, are among the most value-adding elements of AI, according to Christian Nomine, Strategic Product Manager for Visualization & Analytics EMEA at Mitsubishi Electric.

The future of the lithium-ion battery sector is incredibly bright. Over the approximately three decades since the technology made the transition from labs to production lines it’s gone from strength to strength and now stands poised to become a key factor in a global transportation revolution. As demands grow, so does the pressure on manufacturers. How can they effectively scale-up and improve their operations to turn the challenges that they face into opportunities?

Targeting machine-tool software development to expand Circular Digital-Engineering business

Mitsubishi Electric Corporation has recently announced that it has agreed to strategically partner with and invest in ModuleWorks GmbH, a leading software component provider for the digital manufacturing industry. The agreement builds on Mitsubishi Electric's ongoing collaboration with ModuleWorks, a highly regarded developer of cutting-edge CAD/CAM solutions, for the development of advanced technologies to generate machining-tool paths2 and conduct machine-tool simulations.
