Laboratory automation is reshaping biomedical workflows by accelerating routine tasks, reducing human error and strengthening data integrity across research and clinical settings. For manufacturers, warehousing teams and automation professionals at Blue Sky Robotics , these advances translate into tangible opportunities to pair robotics, process co ntrol and scalable throughput with laboratory demands. Across pre-analytical, analytical and post-analytical stages, automation

A 6-axis force/torque sensor measures forces and torques along three translational and three rotational axes, giving a robot a full picture of contact dynamics rather than the single-direction feedback of a basic load cell. This multidirectional sensing and high-resolution measurement enable robots to perform delicate assembly, force-guided insertion and surface following with the repeatable precision that modern manufacturing and warehouse automation demand. Beyond improved

The robo tic arm xarm is a versatile, accessible automation platform that fits manufacturing floors, warehouse operations and research labs alike. With compact form factors, modular end-effectors and intuitive programming, it enables teams t o scale automation without extensive engineering resources. For Blue Sky Robotics’ au dience, manufacturing, warehousing and automation professionals, this class of robot represents a practical way to boost throughput and reduce repetit

Electric grippers have become a core component of modern industrial automation, providing end-of-arm tooling that combines mechanical actuation with embedded electronics for precise motion control. Unlike pneumatic or hydraulic systems, electric grippers offer finer, programmable control, higher repeatability and better energy efficiency, making them well suited to tasks that demand accuracy and adaptable force profiles. For manufacturing and warehousing operations focused

Universal Robots helped define a class of collaborative robots that work safely alongside people, combining intuitive programming, compact footprints and flexible end‑of‑arm tooling to perform tasks once reserved for traditional industrial robots. Unlike caged industrial arms, these machines are designed for quick deployment, repeatable precision and easy redeployment across production lines, research labs and automated warehouses, making their practical advantages clear to m
