Over the past few weeks our Industrial Systems team have been working flat out on a particularly prestigious project for one of our customers who works in the aerospace industry.
They approached us to build a moveable Staging Platform System and provided us with a comprehensive specification document enabling us to come up with the right acceptable design that fully met their brief.
The completed staging platform, which is constructed using MayTec’s aluminium profile system, includes both electrical and compressed air connections. With the need to meet strict safety guidelines, the platform is anti-topple and has been fully tested by the Servitec Group and been certified to meet a safe working load up to 460 kgs.

Robotics: Universal Robots New Addition – the UR30
If you’re looking for a high speed cobot that can lift up to 30kgs, then Christmas has come early following the launch of Universal Robot’s UR30 at the end of November.
UR30 is the second in Universal Robot’s new series of innovative, next generation cobots and is built on the same architecture as the award-winning UR20. Despite its compact size, UR30 offers extraordinary lift, and its superior motion control ensures the perfect placement of large payloads allowing it to work at higher speeds and lift heavier loads.
This makes UR30 ideal for several applications, including machine tending, material handling and high torque screw driving. For machine tending, the high payload brings new possibilities as it allows the cobot to use multiple grippers simultaneously. This means it can remove finished parts and load more material in one single pass, shortening changeover times and maximizing productivity.
The UR30 is available for pre-orders now and will begin shipping in Q1 2024.
As UR’s appointed Sales Partner in the South West of England and South Wales, our robotics team have the skills and knowledge to help you make the right decisions. Whether you’re considering bringing new technology and automation into your business, their advice and guidance will ensure that you’re on the right track.
