Robots can receive the supplier pallets, store the cases, and build every customer order. But even in highly automated warehouses, one step has held out before the dock: stretch wrapping. In this episode of Manufacturing Matters, recorded on the show floor at Pack Expo International 2026 in Chicago…

Walk the floor at Pack Expo and you’ll see fillers, conveyors, robots, and palletizers, each impressive on its own. But a collection of standalone machines doesn’t make a production line. In this episode of Manufacturing Matters, recorded on the show floor at Pack Expo International 2026 in Chicago…
“Now tactile is an array of information that gives you insight into the contact mechanics between two objects.” Pressure is a scalar value. Force is a vector. Tactile sensing, says Pressure Profile Systems founder Dr. Jae Son, is something else entirely — a map of contact across an entire surface, …
Machine vision teams will happily argue for hours about cameras, sensors, and AI models. Then they choose the light last — and wonder why the system can’t see the defect it was built to find. Lindsey Sullivan has a demo that ends the argument. At CCS America’s hands-on lighting roundtables, she han…
Most discussions about industrial automation and analytics concern operations with hundreds of employees. This episode of Manufacturing Matters explores a less traveled quarter: Small shops with maybe a dozen people on the floor, a founder who has run the place for decades, and a spring sales bump …
“You can have a high speed industrial robot, any type of robot really. And it doesn’t need fences, it doesn’t need safety devices. Everything is there. So it adjusts in real time to its environment.” A fence is usually the price of speed: put a high-speed industrial robot on a plant floor and you …

In this special Automate 2026 episode of Manufacturing Matters, TECH B2B Marketing’s Jimmy Carrol…
“The value is moving from the metal to the code.” As manufacturers add AI and software to their products, the old one-time hardware sale is running out of runway when it comes to improving AI models for manufacturing. For Thales’s Dale Hopkinson, the real opportunity — and the real risk — sits in h…
“The more we can do with it, then the more likely the humanoids are going to take off and be adopted.”
Connectors rarely get top billing. Nobody designs a device around a connector — yet these humble components increasingly determine whether a smart factory, an edge deployment, or a humanoid robot …
"AI needs data, and industrial data is not available on the general internet." “It's not like you do either AI or manufacturing. If you're smart, you optimize what you have. You would be amazed how much you can gain by just retrofitting your old asset.” AI is finally moving “fr…
