Industrial Automation - It Doesn't Have To... Be Menial

Industrial Automation – It Doesn’t Have To…

Send us a text

Menial tasks are those repetitive, tedious, or dangerous tasks that a robot is capable of doing freeing up time for associates to focus on high-value-added tasks.
The types of robots used to automate applications can be different and sometimes confusing, so we're breaking it all down for in this episode.
Please join us as we explore collaborative robots, also called cobots. You'll hear the differences between an industrial robot and a collaborative robot. As well as:

• What makes a cobot collaborative
  
• Are there cost savings between an industrial robot and a cobot
  
• The types of applications that are better suited for collaborative robots
  
• How collaborative robots can be used to empower employees
  
• The ROI (return on investment) for a cobot

Did you hear? elliTek has partnered with Hanwha Robotics to provide United States manufacturers their HCR Advanced Series collaborative robots! Take a look at these sleek cobots.
