From the "rohbot" to the robot: Low Cost Automation with igus plastic arm and online marketplace model02/02/2019
The reasons for using low cost automation are as varied as the applications. Mechanical engineering companies and robot manufacturers want to build their own products with a few cost-effective parts; production plants with their own automation systems choose "half-finished" robots (as “rawbots”) and adapt the control system and components to their standards. Small companies, in contrast, want to use ready-made systems easily and, above all, very cost-effectively. igus takes these different requirements into account and presents new hardware components in the form of the "rohbot" concept as well as a digital marketplace model for the the first easy steps in the world of cost-effective automation. |
