Built To Assist: The New Industrial Role Of Robotics
Alexander Clausbruch, CEO North America, Radix, offering operational excellence for asset-intensive industries. As industries advance deeper into digitization, a world where robots are woven into the fabric of everyday operations is no longer science fiction. The age of the ubiquitous 'automated helper' is already here. Today, there are approximately 162 robots per 10,000 employees worldwide. As we step into the era of Industry 5.0, mass robotic power is poised to bridge labor shortages, mitigate safety risks and ease operational pressures. In the U.S., 70% of businesses are looking to bring production closer to home, with robotic automation and workforce upskilling identified as essential components of this transition, according to EY. Globally, 53% of manufacturers are in the early stages of adopting new industrial robot hardware, while 28% already have industrial robots deployed within their facilities, according to ABI Research, which surveyed companies across the U.S., Germany and Malaysia. Helping Hands Fully autonomous refineries may still be on the horizon, but companies are already deploying robotics to preserve older assets, modernize operations and supercharge efficiency. This shift is being driven by multiple pressures: aging infrastructure across manufacturing, energy and heavy industry; the high cost and long lead times of greenfield projects; supply chain volatility; and growing regulatory and ESG demands. On the ground, we're seeing tangible adoption of robotics and automation in industrial sectors. For example, robotic welders are doing shifts on production lines while inspection drones and automated cleaning systems are improving safety and efficiency in hazardous environments. In logistics, mobile robots are increasingly being used to optimize handling and reduce manual strain. Meanwhile, sensor-integrated machines are running predictive maintenance strategies that help reduce unplanned downtime. Semi-autonomous control systems are also gaining traction, facilitating the remote operation of critical assets and plants and enabling safer, more flexible industrial operations. Digital technologies are increasingly being layered onto automation platforms to unlock further efficiencies. These include energy optimization, mass balance, advanced process control and real-time operational data integration. The result is not just enhanced productivity, but a new era of more adaptive, resilient and intelligent industrial operations. Real-World Robotics In the U.S., for example, heavy equipment manufacturer Caterpillar is successfully using autonomous arms for welding and machining in its factories. These robots improve weld precision, cycle time and material usage efficiency. On one Cat mining truck, a robot and a welder working together can complete a weld 60% faster than a person working alone. In a broader use case that highlights the deployment of robotics for predictive maintenance, a major Brazilian oil and gas (O&G) operator and customer of my company, Radix, has implemented a suite of digital automation and semi-autonomous technologies to modernize its aging floating production units. The Radix-supported initiative deployed a digital twin system to monitor 36 critical assets, including turbines, compressors and generators. The platform enabled real-time anomaly detection across 2,200 field instruments. Within a year, the O&G operator saved approximately $2 million through optimized maintenance cycles and reduced downtime. Augmentation, Not Replacement Still, it is important to emphasize that the goal of these robots is not replacement but augmentation. By boosting precision, improving safety and taking on tasks that are dangerous, repetitive or physically taxing, automation can support rather than supplant the workforce. This type of human-machine collaboration is essential for unlocking new levels of performance without requiring a complete overhaul of existing operations. Industry leaders should begin by investing in small-scope, scalable robotics pilots that address real-world operational issues. Before launching any robotics initiative, it's critical to break down organizational silos and prioritize interoperability. This starts with cross-functional working groups that include IT, OT and engineering, ensuring robotics is deployed to solve shared challenges, not isolated technical issues. Equally important is the establishment of common standards across domains, including data formats, integration architectures and safety protocols. The ultimate goal is to build a modular, flexible robotics ecosystem that is capable of evolving alongside the business. All this said, organizations should be mindful not to overlook the cultural dynamics that can undermine even the most promising robotics initiatives. Resistance to change, fear of job loss and a lack of cross-functional communication are common obstacles. Given these concerns, it's important to involve frontline teams early, invite their feedback and frame automation not as a job eliminator but as a tool to support human roles. This kind of transparency, reinforced through regular communication, training and visible leadership support, fosters trust and lays the groundwork for a successful transformation. Welcome To The Future, Today Ultimately, robots have the potential to ease the transition from aging infrastructure to more future-ready operations, offering meaningful gains in productivity along the way. By considering these points above, you can be better positioned to shape—rather than simply react to—the next chapter of industrial evolution.

Radix selects Tucows Registry as Back-End Registry Services Provider
TORONTO, Aug. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Tucows Inc. (NASDAQ: TCX) (TSX: TC), a global provider of internet services, and Radix, one of the world's largest portfolio registries, announced today that Tucows Registry, part of the company's Tucows Domains operating segment, has been awarded the contract to provide back-end registry services to Radix. This partnership will see Tucows assume technical registry operations for Radix's portfolio of 11 top-level domains (TLDs), including 10 new generic top-level domains (gTLDs) and one country-code TLD (ccTLD), as well as one second-level domain TLD (SLD). Radix's portfolio includes some of the most recognized and high-performing domain extensions in the global market, such as .online, .store, .tech, .site, and .fun. "Being selected by Radix—an industry leader known for innovation and brand strength—is a powerful endorsement of our capabilities," said David Woroch, CEO of Tucows Domains. "This marks another major milestone for Tucows Registry, positioning us as the preferred platform for top-tier registry operators—and sets us up strongly for the next wave of new TLDs expected in 2026." The migration of the Radix domains is expected in November 2025 and will add approximately 10 million domains under management (DUMs) to the Tucows Registry platform, for a total of almost 17 million domains globally. This includes growth since the 2021 acquisition of UNR; the incoming domains from Radix; and the recently migrated domains from the National Internet Exchange of India (NIXI). This agreement further expands Tucows' position as a leading infrastructure provider in the domain industry—now providing back-end services for two of the largest registry operators globally. It creates meaningful operating leverage, and establishes a clear growth vector within the broader Tucows Domains business. Radix operates with a unique model—choosing highly versatile, keyword-rich strings that perform across industries and languages. With over 3.5 million active names under .online alone, Radix has earned a reputation for innovative, data-driven go-to-market strategies that drive global reach and strong renewal rates.
