…added that it has designed the cobot's interface for ease of use, and its plug-and-play concept makes it accessible to SMEs. The robot is suitable for industrial applications including assembly, quality assurance, palletizing, and pick-and-place tasks, said Kassow. Its seventh axis, or “wrist joint,” and safety-compliant design allow for human-robot collaboration, the company said. Users can move the relatively lightweight KR1018 to perform tasks in different areas of a facility. The seventh axis gives the KR1018 a small footprint of 160 x 160 mm (6.2 x 6.2 in.), maneuverability, and an increased range of motion, said the company. It can…

…well-established philosophy of remaining brand-agnostic for hardware. Source: RoboDK Ease of use and safety at the heart of the process Equally important, RoboDK said is ease of use and safety of its products. TwinTool runs directly from RoboDK, making the bridge between the robot controller and the sensor. No programming skills are required, claimed the company. Users only need RoboDK simulation software, a robot, its tool (spherical or conical), and a sensor. Singularities and collisions are avoided, and trajectories automatically calculated. “We have created a user-friendly wizard to ensure that the calibration is done correctly and safely,” said RoboDK software…

…implement automation, many vendors have touted their latest products' ease of use. At the same time, newcomers should still seek the best information and assistance as they evaluate tasks and technologies and decide to deply robots, Burnstein said. “It's the same issues—ease of use, return on investment, safety, and flexibility,” he said. “Someone noted during Automate Forward's cobot panel that just because automation is easier, it doesn't mean you don't need help designing your solution. Integrators and distributors still have a role to play. Those needs don't go away, especially where there's a lack of skilled workers.” “To fully take…
