However, there is a\nlot of scepticism regarding robots rendering human skills obsolete and the\nsafety of humans while working beside collaborative robots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Working hand in hand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Machines do what they are best at and humans do what they do best. While collaborative robots can help with labour-intensive physically demanding or dangerous work, humans can do resource-intensive and strategic thinking jobs. Research predicts that most workplaces will neither be fully automated nor devoid of humans. Researchers further envisaged humans and robots working together with specifically assigned tasks. Robots and humans have their own specific strengths, and with their strengths combined, future workplaces are going to witness better productivity, more flexibility, efficient utilisation of resources, the better quality of products and most importantly, improved competition among companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Safer than you think!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n With human and robot collaboration,\nwe cannot underestimate the risk of injury. With more and more robots entering\nthe markets, safety is a matter of concern. However, data-driven guidelines are provided to counter risks and enable humans\nand robots to work safely and in close proximity. Moreover features like the\nspeed and force limited design and hand guiding ensures safety while\nworking with the robots. To allay fears, some companies had robots on display,\nintroducing workers to what robots can do and how they can work with them.\n Furthermore, single and dual collaborative robot arms are designed to\nhave safe contact with humans. Sawyer and Baxter are two examples of\ncollaborative robot arms. They are power and force limited robots. Their safety\nfeatures make it safe for humans to work with them. In risk assessment, it is\nthe application that is of more concern and not the robot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Collaborative robots\nand education:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Education today is\nwitnessing transformation in the technological front at a rapid pace. The\n21st-century schools and universities are now preparing themselves to integrate\nRobotics into their curriculum and seeking to build a generation that will prepare\nfor the 4th<\/sup> industrial Revolution. Cobots are shaping the future of universities\nand education. In Australia, there\u2019s been a large demand for Collaborative Robots at\nuniversities and educational departments. With the\nintroduction of Robotics in schools and universities, it will prepare a\ngeneration that is ready for the future job market. <\/p>\n\n\n\nCompanies offering\ncollaborative robots have made it appealing and beneficial to educators and\nstudents alike. Setting up a cobot is not time-consuming for the educator and\npupils. Moreover, they are versatile and can be moved to various locations in\nthe school. Students and educators can work alongside robots. They are\ncost-effective with a good return on investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Undoubtedly the introduction of\nCollaborative robots overall will:<\/h3>\n\n\n\nenhance low-cost, greater flexible automation<\/li> assist humans in increasing productivity<\/li> help humans take on more advanced and rewarding work<\/li> create better jobs with stimulating roles<\/li> prevent humans from undertaking unsafe tasks<\/li> help resolve space constraints<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\nWhen humans and robots work for hand in glove in a safe manner, they can open richer avenues in untapped fields. To achieve this, there needs to be a shift in the mindset of companies and their employees. The strengths of both humans and robots have to be harnessed well to ensure competitiveness and enhanced production. The time is now ripe for exploring the endless possibilities of cobotics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
