Why a collaborative robot?
The cobot is a robot designed specifically to work in an environment where humans operate ensuring their safety and physical integrity. The cobot can interact with the operator to perform repetitive, low-value-added tasks such as positioning or moving parts. The particularity of some cobots is to have been designed to be programmed easily, thanks to their simplified interface or directly by manipulating the cobot, the JAKA range is the perfect example.
The result is lower speeds due to its design to ensure operator safety than a traditional industrial robot. So the cobot will be perfectly adapted, as long as we want a collaboration or a co-activity between man and machine on the same workstation and you want to optimize the surface on the ground.
This means that the cobot will find, especially its place on small series with low or medium cadences, to introduce more flexibility on robotic tasks.
