Nuclear Industry

Imagine a world without safety barriers; a world in which humans work side by side with robots safely. In this world, the robots do all the strenuous repetitive work, freeing us up to use our brains and manual dexterity to do the lighter, more intricate jobs.

Benefits

Collaborative Robots can drive productivity

Opportunity to increase profitability

They can also improve ergonomics

Your business can become more exclusive

Unskilled tasks can be eliminated

Your company can become more competitive

Quality Control Assistant Robot

Collaborative robots can be a great asset in following the operations of the human to check and assure the quality of the operations. Arm your co-bot with a camera, laser sensors, electrical test equipment, and probes to efficiently and safely test the parts in the same spot it was assembled with an operator.

Ergonomic Operator Assistant Robot

Preventing the risk of repetitive strain injuries amongst assembly line workers while improving productivity is a great reason to consider collaborative robots. Collaborative robots can lift and position components for you, or provide a smart and adaptable lift assist when guided by the operator for part of the sequence while automating the rest of the sequence.
