Collaborative
Robots (Cobots) for Assembly Line
Collaborative
robot arms provide a future-proof platform for businesses that need to optimize
production. If the work flow changes, the assembly robotic arm can be
deployed quickly and easily to new processes due to its small size and
lightweight design. Easy programming (even by non-technical workers) gives
agility to automate almost any manual task, including those with small batches
or fast change-overs. In partnership with Universal Robots, EURO GULF
offers Collaborative Robots.
Range of options for assembly automation
Cobot
options from Universal Robots include three flexible and lightweight six-axis
robot arms, from a small tabletop cobot, to the industry's most popular
mid-range cobot, to a longer-range, heavier-payload cobot. With the right
adaptor mechanisms, UR collaborative robot arms can assemble plastics, woods,
metals or a wide range of other materials. Precise, six-axis operation supports
a wide range of assembly operations.
Cobots work safely alongside human assembly
workers
Improve assembly
speed and process quality while reducing the risk of injury associated with
humans working in close proximity to heavy machinery. The patented
technology of UR robots limits the forces if the assembly robot comes into
contact with a person. The robots can also be programmed to operate in
reduced mode when a human enters the robot's work area and resume full speed
when the person leaves.
