How Collaborative Robots Can Benefit Your Company's Manufacturing [2022] - FANUC COBOTS

#cobots #cobot #collaborativerobots Learn how FANUC cobots can benefit your manufacturing processes in 2020 and beyond. Visit www.fanucameri....
With six cobot models to choose from, ranging from 4-35 kg in payload and 550-1813 mm in reach, FANUC cobots offer MORE payload and MORE reach options than any other cobot brand.
Barriers to collaboration are a thing of the past, since FANUC’s CR Series Collaborative Robots safely work side-by-side with people without the need for safety fences. FANUC cobots immediately stop after coming into contact with a person or fixed object thanks to proven safe contact stop sensor technology. What's MORE, FANUC cobots allow for customizable speed and safety settings, allowing you the freedom to do MORE with shared workspaces.
FANUC cobots provide users with MORE control: Either break away from traditional programming with FANUC Hand Guidance feature that allows you to teach your collaborative robot by leading it through paths and/or use it to lift heavy objects manually. Or program with new iHMI guides that provide step-by-step guidance for setting up a CR Series cobot and creating programs, along with other wizards/tutorials to help new users.
Despite its green exterior, FANUC’s collaborative robots operate like any other traditional, yellow FANUC robot: Able to provide MORE reliability and repeat the same movement multiple times at the exact same dexterity. This proven technology and reliability opens a world of possibilities to automate entire assembly operations in any industry such as automotive, packaging, distribution, metalworking and much more.
As with all FANUC robots, FANUC's Collaborative series can be equipped with any of FANUC's intelligence features - Made by FANUC, developed specifically for FANUC robots, to give you MORE possibility for automating with cobots. Intelligence-ready features include FANUC iRVision, 3D vision with FANUC 3D Area Sensor, FANUC Force Sensors, and much MORE.
On packaging and palletizing lines, FANUC Collaborative Robots can be used to carry out dull, repetitive, dirty and dangerous handling tasks, freeing up staff to perform more complex and diversified jobs requiring human skills.
Whether they are used to apply sealants, adhesives, paints or other fluids, FANUC Collaborative Robots work side-by-side with people across a range of industries.
FANUC’s Collaborative Robots are used to lift and position heavy components on machining and assembly lines, preventing the risk of repetitive strain injuries among assembly line workers. The repeatability offered by using a FANUC collaborative robot for these processes improves quality and reduces cycle times.
FANUC Collaborative Robots are ideally suited for machine tending applications that frequently require an operator’s presence. FANUC Collaborative Robots can also carry out quality control checks as part of the handling process, eliminating the need for an additional workstation.
So go ahead. Discover why a FANUC cobot the best choice for your next successful collaborative robot project. Visit www.fanucameri... to learn more.

in normal mode 1000mm/s (not collaborative), but for HRC the safety speed need to be equal or under 250 mm/s on TCP. But the robot only is not collaborative, you need to build à collaborative cell according to ISO10218-2:2011 And ISO/TS15066 AND performing a RISK ASSESSMENT. (ps: in france, they dont like the thresholds on ISO/TS15066) SO BE CARFULE WITH DOES ROBOTS.

I like fanuc :-)

[@benjamindon156]

1000 mm/sec without any safeguarding is considered “collaborative”?

[@cameronzy279]

Cool concept, but why the hardcore speed limit? One of Fanucs larger palletizing robots the r1000ia-30ib can move at 3000mm/sec. I program with an integrated press brake to form sheet metal.

[@chickenz4604]

so cobot is not effective for palletizing?

What makes them safe around humans? Do they have 360 awareness with cameras around them?

[@PumaTim1982]

it checks the curent of each servoaxis. if curent increase unexpected , Robot moves back or stop immediately.

[@henni194]

They are mounted on a force sensor which monitors the forces working on the robot.Iif the force limit (somewhere around 100N I think) is exceeded the robot stops immediately and retracts. If you look at the robots at the beginning of the video you can see that their bases are clearly higher than those of the yellow fanucs. It's also very import to specify the robot's payload correctly, so that external forces cause by collision or contact with the coworker can be seperated from those created by the workpiece/tool reliably. They also move way slower than traditional industrial robots when working in collaboration, just 250mm/s instead of 2000-4000mm/s.

pendant gui looks complicated for random operators

Hi John, our new CRX Cobots utilize a new, more intuitive user interface. You should check out the CRX videos if you are curious about the new interface.

[@johnspencer8982]

@@FANUCAmericaCorporation will check it out. Just installed a "Pally" palletizer with the same end effector shown in the video. thanks!

[@austinclark3809]

[@johnspencer8982]

@@johnspencer8982 No shit!? I'm asking for the exact model of the EOAT cuz I DON'T know what one is, Respectfully. By the way it's a Schmalz FXCB FANUC O20.
