They only have articles now on which welding robot you should buy for your car factory in Detroit.... nothing useful or interesting, unless you make cars. Too bad... they were a good magazine for a while. I even advertised in the mag a few times, but all the magazines that I know about suffered the same fate as most robot companies- there were lots of buyers looking for something to spend their money on, but nobody could really provide what people were looking for. A very frustrating situation for people like me who were trying to sell things.... customers waving money at me, and robot companies were going out of business faster than I could send out catalogs....
