The Key Benefits of Pick & Place With Collaborative Robots
Pick-and-place applications are some of the easiest and quickest applications to deploy. This involves automating monotonous and repetitive work, allowing human workers to focus on more complex tasks. Collaborative Robots are designed to work alongside human employees, enhancing productivity, ensuring safety, and streamlining processes.
Pick and place applications involve the automated retrieval of items from one location and the precise placement of those items in another. Traditionally, these tasks have been labour-intensive and prone to errors. It is also a boring and repetitive task, with symptoms such as Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) becoming a factor after prolonged work.
This means you can reduce the number of staff working on the line, or if more work is required, you can also consider using additional labour. The operator can then focus on maintaining and running the line, e.g. removing full boxes or dealing with deformed products.
Five Reasons Why You Should Consider Cobots in Pick & Place Operations:
- Safety features to reduce operator risk
- Maximised output with minimal space required
- High accuracy and consistency
- Reduced running costs
- Reduced risk of repetitive strain injuries (RSI)
