How do cobots work with humans?
Goodbye to "humans avoiding machines"! The core of cobots working side by side with humans lies in "being safe without injury" and "enabling more efficient collaboration". Humans and robots can "work hand-in-hand" seamlessly in the same space—completely replacing the isolated model of traditional industrial robots where "humans and machines stay on separate sides"!
I. Safety Mechanism Guarantee
For cobots to work side by side with humans? Safety must come first! They minimize risks through three key ways:
The outer shell uses lightweight materials like carbon fiber and aluminum alloy, with joints equipped with cushioning—even if it hits a human, there’s no impact force.
Built-in torque sensors are highly sensitive; upon contact with a human or obstacle, they immediately slow down or even stop.
They are also equipped with "eyes" like 3D cameras and LiDAR, which monitor human positions in real time: if a human enters the core work area, the robot slows down; if someone enters a hazardous area, it shuts down immediately.
