Rockwell Automation Announces Strategic Investment in READY Robotics
羅克韋爾自動化宣布戰(zhàn)略投資READY Robotics

Rockwell Automation, Inc., the world’s largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, has announced a strategic investment in READY Robotics, a pioneering company in software-defined automation and a Rockwell Technology Partner.

全球最大的致力于工業(yè)自動化和數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型的公司羅克韋爾自動化公司宣布對READY Robotics進行戰(zhàn)略投資，READY Robotics是軟件定義自動化領(lǐng)域的先驅(qū)公司，也是羅克韋爾技術(shù)合作伙伴。

READY Robotics’ ForgeOS platform enables operators to control and program the most popular brands of robots from a single user-friendly interface with minimal training. Using Task Canvas, one of many useful ForgeOS Productivity Apps included with the platform, operators can quickly create new automation tasks with a powerful, no-code, flowchart-based interface.

READY Robotics的ForgeOS平臺使操作員能夠通過一個用戶友好的界面控制和編程最主流的機器人品牌，只需最少的培訓(xùn)。使用Task Canvas（該平臺隨附的許多有用的ForgeOS生產(chǎn)力應(yīng)用程序之一），操作員可以通過一個功能強大的、無代碼的、基于流程圖的界面快速創(chuàng)建新的自動化任務(wù)。

Rockwell and READY Robotics have collaborated to integrate ForgeOS with Rockwell’s line of Logix controllers and design and simulation software. The combination will simplify robot integration and accelerate time-to-market of industrial automation deployments. Rockwell’s investment will foster continued development of the ForgeOS platform, support its integration with Logix, and accelerate adoption across the Rockwell ecosystem of system integrators and technology and channel partners.

羅克韋爾和READY Robotics合作將ForgeOS與羅克韋爾的Logix控制器系列以及設(shè)計和仿真軟件相集成。該組合將簡化機器人集成并加快工業(yè)自動化部署的上市時間。羅克韋爾的投資將促進ForgeOS平臺的持續(xù)發(fā)展，支持其與Logix的集成，并加速系統(tǒng)集成商、技術(shù)和渠道合作伙伴在羅克韋爾生態(tài)系統(tǒng)中的采用。

“We are excited to work with READY Robotics to help further simplify the use of diverse robotic systems in automation solutions for our customers. Linking the intuitive ForgeOS software suite with Logix control, design, and emulation capabilities allows a broader range of businesses to implement these powerful tools and spend less time getting their systems up and running,” said Matheus Bulho, vice president and general manager, Production Automation at Rockwell.

羅克韋爾生產(chǎn)自動化副總裁兼總經(jīng)理Matheus Bulho說：“我們很高興與READY Robotics合作，幫助我們的客戶進一步簡化各種機器人系統(tǒng)在自動化解決方案中的使用。將直觀的ForgeOS軟件套件與Logix控制、設(shè)計和仿真功能相結(jié)合，可以讓更多的企業(yè)實施這些強大的工具，并花費更少的時間來啟動和運行他們的系統(tǒng)。”

"Historically, automation has been hampered by software silos between robot vendors,” said Ben Gibbs, CEO and co-founder of READY Robotics. “READY’s interface alleviates this issue, eases deployment, and enables automation where it might have been prohibitive before, especially in high-mix operations. Our platform enables programming and control of over 3 million compatible robots deployed today."

READY Robotics首席執(zhí)行官兼聯(lián)合創(chuàng)始人Ben Gibbs表示：“從歷史上看，自動化一直備受機器人供應(yīng)商之間軟件孤島的阻礙。在高度混合操作中。我們的平臺可以對今天部署的超過300萬個兼容機器人進行編程和控制。”
