Cambridge, United Kingdom – Theo, a 12-year-old boy who is blind, is seated at a table in a crowded kitchen on a gray and drippy mid-December day. A headband that houses cameras, a depth sensor and speakers rings his sandy-brown hair.

The newly developed TS2 HE line features a unique and revolutionary hygienic design for applications in humid environments that opens up a range of uses for SCARA robots in the food processing industry where there is a high risk for contamination and bacteria development. The HE version of the TS2 eliminates retention areas by draining fluids alongside its fully enclosed structure. Key elements are made of stainless steel, and a specific coating covers the arm in order to withstand the full wash down cleaning processes required in a primary processing environment. In addition, Stäubli's technology inside the TS2 HE allows the use of a NSF H1 food-grade oil proprietary to the company to safely lubricate each axis without comprising performance. Theses axes are now put in motion by Stäubli's proprietary JCS drive technology, which facilitates high-speed motion and high repeatability for ultra-short cycle times.

The primary task of procurement is to ensure security of supply by providing the necessary goods at the right time and in the right place. Exactly four factors influence supply security, such an important aspect for company growth and success: supplier, country, material and politics. Supplier: The suppliers are the direct interface of the procurement department and here the economic situation, the logistics chains but also the commissioned subcontractors influence the security of supply. Country: There are very few companies left that do not contract at least part of their procurement volume outside Germany. The economic but also political situation in a country, as well as the working conditions or natural disasters there, can jeopardize a seamless supply. Materials: In the area of materials, we cannot avoid the issue of resource scarcity.
