In this fast-moving industry, agility is the key to competitiveness. Whether you’re building sub-assemblies, loading and unloading test fixtures, or kitting and packaging products, flexible collaborative robots can improve productivity, quality, and consistency.

Safe alongside workers (after a risk assessment), cobots can handle precise tasks such as insertion, dispensing, screwdriving, or labeling with high repeatability. As you automate these repetitive processes, you can redeploy skilled workers to more valuable tasks. Collaborative robots are also an ideal way to distance workers on production lines, by filling in upstream or downstream processes.

Cobot arms are lightweight and easy to program, so they can be easily moved from one production line to another—or moved from production to packaging or palletizing—as needed. Even in competitive electronics manufacturing, cobots can pay for themselves in under a year.
