Precise and consistent assembly applications with collaborative robots

The collaborating robot reduces assembly time and increases production speed

With the collaborating robot, you can set up precisely repeatable processes for bolting, nut driving, part fitting and insertion tasks. These monotonous tasks usually increase the risk of injury to the workers performing them.

Small companies that want to further optimize their production are an ideal application for collaborating robots.

What challenges does a collaborating robot have to master in assembly?

Application challenges

Limited space available

The small footprint and the omission of security fences, which is usually possible, make it possible to use it in many production halls. This is why usually only little or nothing has to be moved. You can start immediately.

High precision

High precision and efficiency are particularly important when screwing, inserting or fitting parts. By equipping the new e-Series Cobots with force/torque sensors, consistent and precise processes are possible.

Protection of employees

Protect your employees and leave these dangerous tasks to collaborating robots. Thanks to the collaborative properties of the robots, they can usually be used next to your employees without a protective device.

Flexible working methods

Often small series are produced. This is where another advantage of the lightweight robots from Universal Robots comes into play: their great flexibility. You can assign the collaborating robot to another workstation at any time.
