Robotic automation in manufacturing is one way to increase productivity and reduce production costs. Designing a robotic workstation with appropriately selected robots guarantees faster handling, high-quality outputs, and more efficient operation of the entire production line. Let's explore how different robots differ and which handling robot will best suit your application.
Six-axis robots are very popular due to their versatility and flexibility in linear and rotational movements (including deviation sideways and tilting). They handle complex manipulations, often used for plastic handling or simple shifting and placement of components and products.
Collaborative robots work alongside humans. They perform routine production tasks and monotonous activities that would reduce worker capacity, which is why their popularity is growing. They don't need barriers and can work directly alongside a person. In case of potential collision with a worker, they are equipped with an emergency stop function.
Handling robots are among the most frequently used in manufacturing, which is why there is a wide range of models that can easily adapt to any scale or environment. In our company, we can integrate handling robots into special-purpose machines and production lines.
