A cobot, a contraction of “collaborative robot,” is a type of industrial robot specifically engineered to work safely alongside human employees. This design philosophy stands in stark contrast to traditional, stationary industrial robots, which are typically caged off and operate in isolation from human contact. What is a Cobot (Collaborative Robot)? Cobots are defined by […]
Have you ever wondered how those precise, tireless mechanical arms in factories accomplish their tasks? We’re talking about the robotic arm! Designed for heavy, dangerous, and repetitive tasks, robotic arms boost productivity and cut costs. In this article, we’ll delve into the inner workings of a robotic arm, from its fundamental components to its practical […]
Ms. Roberta Nelson Shea, Global Technical Compliance Officer at Teradyne Robotics, along with a team of international experts, has established new safety requirements for robotic equipment, robot applications, and robot cells. They discussed the updated ISO 10218 standards with Ms. Nelson Shea, exploring what these crucial ISO 10218 standards mean for robot manufacturers, integrators, and […]
The robotics industry is standing at a critical turning point. Over the past two years, artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly reshaped our perception of technology’s potential. Once seen as a trendy buzzword, AI is now becoming a core element of how businesses operate and grow. As we move into 2025, the focus will shift from […]
If you’ve ever heard about collaborative robots, you’ve likely come across the term “end-of-arm tooling” or “EOAT.” While robots often get all the credit for boosting efficiency, it’s the EOAT that truly unlocks their full potential. Think of it this way: a robot arm is powerful, but without the right “hand,” it can’t do much. […]
What is a Robot Gripper? In the simplest terms, grippers are devices that enable robots to pick up and hold objects. When combined with a collaborative (or ‘cobot’) industrial robot arm, grippers enable manufacturers to automate key processes, such as inspection, assembly, pick & place and machine tending. It’s useful to think of grippers as […]
Robotic welding is a process that helps the industrial sector to automate its processes, increase accuracy, enhance safety and reduce lead time. The robot welding process is considered to be the most productive when it is implemented for high-volume and repetitive tasks. There are multiple types of robotic welding processes. In this article, we will […]
Explore 6-axis robots: from definition, structure, and operating principles to applications and benefits across industries. Learn about selection criteria and leading 6-axis robot brands. What is a robot axis? In robotics, an axis refers to a degree of freedom (DOF), which defines how a robot can move. A 3-axis robot can navigate along the X, […]
The relationship between humans and robots is becoming closer than ever. Rather than being adversaries, robots are gradually becoming valuable “colleagues” that assist humans in both work and life. The concept of collaborative robots (cobots) marks a new milestone in this relationship. Cobots are designed to interact safely and effectively with humans in shared workspaces. […]
Cobots (Collaborative Robots) are a type of robot designed to work alongside humans in shared work environments. Unlike traditional industrial robots, cobots can safely and efficiently collaborate with humans without requiring protective barriers. So, what are cobots, and how have they developed? Let’s explore the history, types, and applications of cobots in various industries. What […]
