Assembly workstations with cobot connection
The manufacturer Rose+Krieger has expanded its range of solutions for cobots at assembly workstations.
With its ergonomically designed, requirement-specific assembly workstations, RK Rose+Krieger offers a solution for the economical production of complex products in small quantities with a high degree of variability.
Combined with collaborative robots and (partially) automated removal and loading devices from Mitsubishi Electric as well as linear feeders from the Rose+Krieger portfolio, they take the strain off employees and ensure reliable, error-free production.
During assembly, cobots can pass material to the worker or place finished parts in the designated places. They are also suitable for path-controlled or position-holding tasks. Additional linear modules can supplement the cobot's six drive axes and increase its range of movement. Rose+Krieger recently began cooperating with Mitsubishi Electric to equip the assembly workstations.
