Electromate is proud to announce that it has again been certified as a Great Place to Work after a thorough, independent analysis conducted by the Great Place to Work Institute Canada.

In Canada, engineers wear a simple, unornamented ring of stainless steel or iron on the pinky finger of their dominant hand. To most, it might seem understated but within the Canadian engineering community, the Iron Ring carries deep meaning. It symbolizes a lifelong commitment to ethics, humility, and the professional responsibility engineers hold in shaping the world around them.

Electromate is expanding its lineup of collaborative automation solutions with the addition of three advanced models from Universal Robots: the UR7e, UR12e, and UR15. These robots provide enhanced options for payload, reach, and precision in demanding collaborative applications.

Explores the integration of mechanics, electronics, and computing to create intelligent and adaptable systems. Covering fundamental principles, sensors, actuators, control systems, and software's role, this guide provides a comprehensive look at how mechatronics is shaping industries like robotics, healthcare, and automotive.

Electromate, Canada's exclusive distributor of Maxon, is proud to introduce the ESCON2 servo controller—a next-generation motion control solution delivering unmatched power density, precision, and versatility for industrial and robotic applications.

As institutions expand robotics programs and automation curricula, choosing the right cobot model is critical to long-term program value. Here are the top UR collaborative robots for education and research in 2025, based on compatibility, ease of use, versatility, and real-world relevance.

In small-scale automation, choosing the right robotic arm is less about raw power and more about precision, flexibility, and footprint. 

Hazardous environment sensors are built for extreme conditions, offering durability, corrosion resistance, temperature tolerance, and explosion protection for safe and reliable operation.

This article explains the key types of software available for robotic simulation and offline programming, and how they support different automation goals.

As global awareness of environmental issues grows, sustainability has become a crucial consideration in all fields of engineering, including mechatronics. Integrating mechatronic systems in sustainable engineering solutions plays a pivotal role in reducing environmental impact, enhancing energy efficiency, and promoting the sustainable use of resources.
