Assembly is one of the most complex jobs a robot can perform.
Modern assembly robots, such as the
LBR iiwa and the
LBR iisy, can be used flexibly to meet requirements. The sensitive characteristics of the
cobots allow the collaborative robots to
work safely and flexibly without fencing. This enables assembly robots to be integrated into the existing production environment and to work directly with humans.
Human-robot collaboration (HRC) – also called collaborative robotics. Cobots additionally
relieve humans of
strenuous routine activities and execute assembly tasks quickly and reliably. The
grippers of the assembly robots can also be equipped with cameras. This enables the robot or gripper to always find the correct components and positions.
