Industrial automation is the use of advanced technologies to control and automate industrial processes, reducing human intervention and increasing productivity. In Malaysia, industrial automation has become increasingly important in recent years, as businesses look to increase efficiency, reduce costs and improve safety. In this article, we will explore the key trends and developments in industrial automation in Malaysia, including its history, benefits, technologies, challenges, government support, case studies and future trends.

Universal Robots (UR), global leader in the rapidly growing market of collaborative robots (cobots), sees turnkey solutions providers who successfully create new applications and products around existing technologies to be one of the main drivers for robotics industry’s growth in 2023.

CEO Jensen Huang touted the availability of NVIDIA's mobile robot platform, numerous manufacturers using its technology stack, and Metropolis for Factories.

Manufacturing automation has gained momentum over the years, and there’s no sign of it slowing down. Now is a great time to examine some of the key manufacturing automation trends that will shape 2023. Here are four to stay mindful of as you consider how to use automation or expand current deployments this year.

ABB will install its Manufacturing Operations Management system (MOM4Metals) on cold rolling mill at Contrisson plant ABB will modernize technology for Roll-Gap Control (RGC) and Automatic Gauge Control (AGC) on the same mill ABB’s technology will help the steel producer to bring productivity to a new level, improve quality and performance

The tool manufacturing industry is embracing automation solutions at an unprecedented pace. This is a worldwide trend driven by several factors - labor shortage, increasing labor costs, the need for maximizing uptime, push for 24/7 machine availability, and customers demanding shorter lead times. Manufacturers need to be more flexible and responsive than ever before.

French startup Niryo adds affordable, easily deployable, and user-friendly cobots engineered for Industry 4.0 prototyping applications, while HELUKABEL cable, wire, and accessories and MGM Transformer Company expand access to essential electrical solutions for industrial and infrastructure applications.

Hesai Technology (Nasdaq: HSAI), a global leader in lidar solutions, and CRATUS, a software solution integrator for lidar systems, announced a strategic alliance to develop autonomous warehouse solutions using Hesai’s groundbreaking safety-rated 3D lidar, the QT128.
