Benefits of automation
-
24/7 ‘Lights Out’ operation: With machine tending cobots in place, equipment can run around the clock, with “lights-out” operation to maximize uptime and equipment ROI. Employees need not check on the cobot until the start of the next shift or operation.
-
Optimized Efficiency and Quality: OB7 cobots will complete the required actions with high repeatability and efficiency, eliminating scraps caused by human error. OB7 does not have to be programmed, but can simply be physically moved into position by the operator.
-
Enhanced Productivity: Your workers remain your most valuable and impactful assets. With cobots completing dirty, dull, dangerous tasks, those employees have more time to spend on higher-value, more impactful and innovative tasks — the ones that cannot be completed by robots.
-
Ultimate Flexibility: OB7 can be easily moved, set up and integrated with nearly any machine in the facility. This flexibility and versatility yield a much higher ROI than stationary robots that must be extensively programmed for use with one piece of equipment.
-
Designed and Manufactured in the USA: OB7 robots are fully designed and manufactured in America with the latest technology. With Productive Robotics, you receive direct factory support and a partner along your automation journey.
-
Increased worker safety: Some machine tending cobots are used for other processes such as holding tools and parts for a consistent, high-quality — and safer — weld operation. By completing these tasks with cobots, your personnel are further removed from some of the most dangerous processes in the facility.
Automate with confidence. It's easy to get started.
