Cobots, or collaborative robots, are designed to operate side by side with employees. In order to free up workers’ attention for jobs that need problem-solving abilities, these machines concentrate more on repetitive duties like inspection and picking.
A collaborative robot, commonly referred to as a cobot, is a machine that can pick up several duties and help people. Autonomous robots, on the other hand, are hard-coded to consistently perform a single task, operate independently, and remain immobile. They are capable of handling repetitive jobs, dangerous materials, and heavy lifting. This has helped businesses avoid numerous mishaps while also saving them money and time.
The Global Cobot plastics market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The first self-contained COBOT case packer for lids and containers is made available by Muller Technology. The first self-contained collaborative robot (COBOT) case packer for the packaging of lid and container packaging has been introduced by Muller Technology, a top global provider of moulds and automation solutions for thin-wall packaging.
In addition to providing better versatility, flexibility, and productivity, the new automation device, which features an Omron 6-axis cobot, assists processors in filling a critical labour shortage gap in the U.S. plastics processing industry.
The COBOT case packer aids processors who struggle to fill positions for unskilled labour in these hard economic times while simultaneously satisfying COVID-19 social distance criteria. According to Konowal, packers’ occupations are exceedingly monotonous and unfulfilling but extremely necessary.
Moulders can reallocate their staff to higher-paying, more productive positions thanks to the new case packer. The cobot performs numerous routine activities alongside an employee. The cobot slows down but still working as an employee gets closer to it. The cobot system, in contrast to conventional industrial robots, does not require additional guarding, and all safety features are built into the cobot.
The basic Muller Human Machine Interface (HMI) that is built into the cobot case packer does not require any programming and has the ability to save numerous recipes for various stack and box sizes.
The case packer is available for standalone purchase or can be included in an automation line like Muller’s new M-Line system, an innovative integrated robotic and automation system that offers substantially more flexibility and versatility for the manufacture of injection moulded packaging.
