Cobots
The new miniPAL® 2.0 is a collaborative robot or cobot with a compact design to work alongside employees safely
A cobot, or collaborative robot, is a type of industrial robot that can work safely alongside people. Unlike traditional industrial robots, a cobot does not need safety guarding to protect employees from interacting with it, instead they use sensors and an auto stop function to allow people to work next to them safely. Their flexibility and ability to adapt easily for different products make them extremely useful for production lines and manufacturing. They are also typically smaller and lighter than other robots, therefore they can be moved to different locations more easily than traditional industrial robots.

miniPAL® 2.0 Cobot
The new miniPAL® 2.0 cobot, our latest collaborative palletizing robot, features the UR10e robot from Universal Robots. The new compact design includes a more narrow frame and cover than our previous cobot. The cobot features lifting columns for tall loads, dual stacking locations for continuous load building, built-in fork pockets for easy mobility, and area scanners for safety instead of safety mats. With intuitive pattern building software designed to be smooth and flexible, the cobot is easy to have up and running quickly.
