INNOVATION & INSIGHTS
Shaping the Future of Print
Join 220,000+ Textile Industry Professionals
Digital transformation doesn't announce itself.
It accumulates - one innovation at a time - until an entire industry looks back and realises the ground has shifted beneath its feet. That's precisely where textiles stands today.
The conversations happening now about AI, automation, sustainability, and digital product passports are not theoretical. They are shaping decisions being made on factory floors and in boardrooms right now.
Epson has announced its new LS-C SCARA robot series, with the LS4-C and LS8-C robots replacing the previous LS-B series models.
The updated range features a new design, higher payloads, faster cycle times and expanded configuration options for demanding industrial automation applications.
Building on the strengths of the LS-B series, the new robots offer enhanced functionality for manufacturers seeking greater flexibility, reliability and long-term system compatibility.
The 2026 judging panel comprises esteemed leaders spanning diverse sectors, including digital visual communications, film, fashion, accessories, textiles, product design, architecture, interiors, fine art, photography, contemporary craft, and jewellery.
Over the forthcoming weeks, ARTS THREAD will individually unveil the judges from A to Z across its official social media platforms. This phased announcement highlights the calibre of expertise awaiting this year's cohort of creators.
