Putting robots to work in medium-sized businesses
automatica Talk No. 5
The use of robots is no longer exclusive to large companies with mass production facilities. On the contrary: The ‘democratization of robotics’ is about to begin. Smaller companies and the craft sector are also increasingly turning to robots and cobots – and for good reasons:
New concepts have greatly reduced the integration effort – making robotics applications economical for SMEs and the craft sector
- Robots are becoming increasingly user-friendly and can be easily operated or (re)programmed even without special skills
- SMEs often produce small and medium batch sizes with a great variant diversity – and cobots have proven to be the perfect match for these ‘high mix, low volume’ requirements
- Robots can be used for a wide variety of tasks – and gain even more flexibility and mobility when mounted on rolling platforms
- The great flexibility and variance of such solutions enable production runs down to a batch size of 1 – fully automated
- Even if the rest of the workforce does not work in 3 shifts: Robots do not need breaks and are available 24/7
Learn more about the successful use of robots in SMEs, revolutionary programming tools, the advantages of Quick Checks and the exciting best practice example of deinSchrank.de.
