Commonly Asked Questions About Welding Cobots
Collaborative welding robots — or welding cobots for short — are safety-rated industrial robots that can require little to no safeguarding compared with traditional industrial robots.
Built-in force sensors with adjustable sensitivity thresholds allow our welding cobots to work safely alongside people without the need for expensive guarding, saving space and costs.
According to ISO 10218 part 1 and part 2, there are four main types of cobots: safety monitored stop, speed and separation, power and force limiting, and hand guiding.
Many factors can determine a cobot’s cost. A cobot expert can help you determine the best cobot welding solution tailored to your needs. Additionally, FANUC America has the industry’s largest network of Authorized System Integrators for robotics and arc welding throughout the Americas who can help solve your challenges.
