Applications of collaborative industrial robots

  • 1 Technical faculty Bihać, Bosnia and Herzegovina

Abstract

Collaborative robots, or cobots, are increasingly being taken out from behind the cages and being used alongside human beings to automate a variety of tasks, including quality inspection, pick-and-place. Collaborative industrial robots are harmless to the human worker, affordable, and easy to use and program. This paper studies applications of collaborative industrial robots in industry.
