Maintenance And Downtime Limited Decision-Making Ability
Welding Painting

 

The programming and reprogramming processes for industrial robots can be complex and time-consuming, requiring specialized knowledge and expertise. Acquiring and setting up industrial robotic systems can involve significant upfront expenses, including purchase, installation, and integration costs.
Industrial robots are designed to perform specific tasks and may lack the ability to handle a wide range of different tasks or adapt to new ones. The presence of industrial robots in the workplace can pose safety risks to humans, requiring additional safety measures and protocols.
Industrial robots typically follow pre-programmed instructions and lack the intelligence to make complex decisions or adapt to unexpected situations. Industrial robots require regular maintenance and may experience downtime for repairs or software updates, impacting productivity.
A task where industrial robots apply paint or coatings to surfaces, streamlining the painting process and ensuring consistency. A task where industrial robots use heat to join materials together, commonly used in industries like automotive and manufacturing.

 

Pick-And-Place Inspection
Material Handling Machine Tending
Palletizing Deburring

 

A task where industrial robots examine products or components to ensure quality and identify defects or anomalies. A task where industrial robots pick up objects and place them in desired locations, often used in packaging and material handling.
A task where industrial robots operate and tend to machinery, such as loading/unloading parts, monitoring processes, or performing maintenance. A task where industrial robots manipulate materials, such as loading, unloading, sorting, or transferring them between locations.
A task where industrial robots remove edges, burrs, or imperfections from machined parts or components. A task where industrial robots stack products or goods onto pallets for efficient storage or transportation.
