How Safe Is It To Work Alongside An OB7 Family Cobot?
The OB7 Family Cobot is safe because it has built in safety sensors. If the robot bumps into you it stops. This feature can also be used “on purpose” to inspect something. To put your OB7 Family Cobot back to work, simply give it a tap.
What Are The Benefits Of Having A 7-Axis Robot vs 6-Axis?
The “7” means that the robot has 7 joints. Most collaborative robots have only 6 joints or less. Having 7 joints or 7 axis points or 7 DOF (degrees of freedom) means that the robot can reach around something. For example, if your robot is operating a machine and it only has 6 joints, then you have to put the robot directly in front the work, which leaves limited room for a person to work alongside it.
How Much Weight Can It Lift?
We have Cobots that can lift up to 26lbs.
How Easy Is It To Program The OB7 Family Robot?
It is very easy. Actually, there is NO programming required. The robot “learns” to do jobs from you. Simply show the robot what to do and it remembers. Specifics like the number of parts to put in a box, or the number of stacks to make are entered on the robots wired keypad.
