Cobots in production

Your guide to robot integration


This white paper provides you with the fundamentals for successfully integrating cobots into your production operations. Find out how to identify potential cobot applications, what to bear in mind when integrating robots and how you can take the next step after automating your first processes.

Cobot integration: Possibilities, first steps and practical tips

Collaborative robots (cobots) have made it much simpler to get started with robot integration. Compared to conventional industrial robots, cobots are much easier to integrate into production. This means there are options for virtually every company to embrace cutting-edge robotics – whether for automating and simplifying production processes or specifically easing the burden on employees. In this white paper, you’ll learn how your company can take advantage of these opportunities.

This white paper covers:

  • The benefits of cobots over industrial robots
  • Examples of suitable entry-level tasks
  • The next steps after integrating your first robot
  • The essentials of how to involve staff and address doubts
