The new manufacturing ecosystem displaces traditional manufacturing.

RBR50 company Yaskawa Motoman has introduced its high-speed MH50 II Series that features the MH50 II, the MH50 II-35 and the MH50 II-20 robot arms. All three models feature six axes and use the dynamic DX200 controller that features patented multiple robot control technology to control up to eight robots (72 axes).

NASA and Yaskawa Motoman tested new robotic refueling technologies that could help satellites live longer in space and keep humans safe during these extremely hazardous operations.
