Cobot Systems

In addition to Cyan Tec Systems’ formidable and deserved reputation as being one of the leading industrial robotic integrators in the UK, the advancements in the design and manufacture of collaborative robots (Cobots) has allowed certain automated processes to be developed to operate safely alongside humans.

As well as the primary advantage of having the ability to assist in tasks requiring a human touch, Cobots can also enhance precision and reduce physical strain on workers. Cobots are used in applications that require dexterity, adaptability, and flexibility, typically in environments with less volume or varying product lines.

Cobots are designed with safety and ergonomics as a priority. They often feature lightweight bodies, advanced sensors, and articulated joints, enabling them to be flexible and easily programmable.

The key characteristics of a Cobot are as follows:

• Force and torque sensors
• User-friendly interfaces for programming
• Human-friendly materials

Cyan Tec is an official systems partner with Fanuc and ABB, as well as being the UK’s official Systems House Integrator for Mitsubishi Robotics. Cyan Tec are in the enviable position of also being an established integrator for Kuka, Staubli, Motoman, OTC,  Janome and Kawasaki robots.

Typical Cobot applications include:

• Electronics assembly
• packaging and palletising
• Inspection and quality control
• Pick and place
