Getting Started with Cobots
|
What to look for
For small and mid-size manufacturers that don’t have an army of automation engineers,
cobots are a dream come true
. These companies can especially be hard hit by labor shortages, economic volatility and competitive pressures, so the ability to deploy cobots without major investments in time, talent and money is a game-changer for many.
One of the most common questions is: “how can I get started?” Here are some things we recommend that manufacturers look for when considering where cobots can be put to work.

AGV vs. AMR
What's the Difference?
|
Both move materials, that's
where the similarities end
By automating material transportation, organizations can optimize productivity and can schedule deliveries more effectively to reduce production bottlenecks.
Until recently, traditional automated guided vehicles (AGVs) were the only option for automating internal transportation tasks. Today, however,Traditional AGVs are being challenged by the more sophisticated, flexible, and cost-effective technology of
autonomous mobile robots (AMRs)
. While AGVs and AMRs both move materials from one place to another, that is where the similarities cease.
