Human-machine collaboration

Easy-to-integrate and flexible robotic solutions were front and centre at Automate. There was a conference program

dedicated to collaborative robots, with new product releases announced by some of the biggest players in the sector.

For example, Boston Dynamics, the manufacturer of Spot, one of the world's most beloved robots, announced some

interesting new entries to the company’s portfolio. That included dynamic and compact solutions designed to access

spaces most robots can’t reach while still handling large payloads, such as Stretch, a multipurpose warehouse robot

which represents the company’s first venture into warehouse automation.

However, many businesses are concerned about the complexity of commissioning and integrating a cobot. In answer to

these concerns, Automate presented different deployment methods suited to all needs, including classic integration and

customisable robots. There are also do-it-yourself plug and play solutions that require no coding at all. Robotiq,

for example, offered a session comparing different integration methods, some of which include easy-to-follow tutorials

showing how to set up a cobot’s workflow simply by moving its arm in the desired direction.

FANUC stressed that manufacturers, when considering the ROI of robotics and automation, should go beyond cost reduction

and consider other key variables. These include empowering skilled workers, improving staff engagement and morale, and

promoting a cultural shift towards embracing future technologies.

Automate stressed the need for applications that are truly collaborative, allowing humans and robots to get the best out of each other.
