Collaberative Robots​

What are collaborative robots?


Collaborative robots, or cobots, have revolutionized machine tending. Unlike traditional robots, cobots feature advanced safety mechanisms that enable them to work alongside human operators without extensive safety barriers. Their user-friendly design, featuring intuitive interfaces and simple programming, ensures easy operation a​nd seamless integration into​ existing workflows. This advancement in robotics has significantly enhanced efficiency and mitigated the challenges po​sed by labor shortages in the manufacturing industry.​


Cost-effectiveness: Because setup and programming are so simple, you don't need to pay for in-depth training sessions and integration resources. And because safety is built into their design, you can save on safety equipment like fencing or machine guarding. 

ROI: Cobots require a lower initial investment than traditional robotics and can have a payback time as low as 6-8 months. 

Flexible & easy to program: Cobots are so easy to program for different tasks, making them highly versatile. They're also a great way of future-proofing your facility against the possibility of another global crisis like COVID-19.


Where can Cobots be Used? 

Cobots are extreamly versitile and complete a wide variety of tasks.

Machine Tending 

Cobots, has revolutionized these aspects of manufacturing. By automating the loading and unloading of CNC Machines, Press Brake, Injection Mold Machines etc.  manufacturers get more consistent and scalable machining.

Packing & Palletizing

A robot packing and palletizing system will transform how efficient and productive smaller businesses are.

Welding 

With DMQ's welding station, Mig/Mag, Tig, Spot, Arc welding becomes easy. Cobots are more precise than humans and will therefore deliver more consistent quality.

Quality Inspection & Testing

Equipped with advanced sensors and cameras that allow them to carry out quality inspections in real time, our Cobots can identify defects, contamination or anomalies in food products, ensuring that only compliant products reach consumers.

Pick & Place 

Pick and place is nothing less than picking up objects and placing them somewhere.  Examples include placing products on a conveyor belt, filling crates or boxes, offering products to an assembly line, or sorting products. With 3D Vision even Bin Picking is easy.  

Sanding, Polishing, Gluing & Screwing 

Sanding, polishing, gluing, and screwing on parts is a simple, monotonous repetitive task that demands a lot from workers. In order to deliver consistent quality, it is important that this task is performed continuously with the same force and precision. Cobots are ideally suited for this.

We believe that collaboration and strong alliances that enable us to deliver high-quality products and great value to our customers - FANUC's new CRX Cobots are safe, flexible, quick to implement, and easy to program.

Features
Easy to Power

Each model runs on standard 230V power

Small Footprint

The compact size of the CRX makes each model easy to place

Quick set-Up

Fast gripper installation and changeovers with FANUC approved devices.  

Contact Stop Functions

Reliable safety features - its sensors are sensitive and trigger an immediate safety stop at the touch of a human body.

Manual Guided Teaching

Manual guided teaching function to teach the Cobot. Just lead your robot to the desired position and save it on the tablet using the drag & drop functionality.

Reliable

Robots average up to 3850 hours before we recommend carrying out preventive maintenance.



CRX-10iA/L

 The CRX-10iA/L Collaborative Robot, with a 10 kg payload, 1,418 mm reach. Weighing only 39 kilograms, the arm of the smoothly designed shiny white robot can perform a highly functional underflip motion to pick a part from a table in front it and put the part on the table behind it in one single, smooth motion.



CRX-20iA/L

   The CRX-20iA/L Collaborative Robot, with a 20 kg payload, 1,418 mm reach and impressive underflip motion, is the perfect solution for manufacturers with little to no robotic experience. The CRX series offers an all-new FANUC programming interface with simple drag and drop functionality on a tablet teach pendant.



CRX-30iA/L

  The CRX-30iA Collaborative Robot, with a 30 kg payload and 1756 mm reach allows for heavier end of arm tooling and multi-part handling. With a slightly reduced payload of 25 kg, the reach can be expanded to 1889 mm. It is the perfect solution for manufacturers with little to no robotic experience

 

CR-35i

  The CR-35iB is the world’s strongest collaborative robot with a lifting capacity of up to 50 kg. The load capacity combined with its extensive reach and safety certification makes it ideally suited to a wide range processes involving heavy lifting and positioning that was traditionally carried out by humans.
