Cobots

Man operating a welding robot.

Linde Canada is committed to making our world more productive by facilitating our client’s industrial automation with cutting-edge collaborative robot (cobot) solutions. Cobots are robotic helpers designed to work alongside human operators to improve efficiency on welding applications. Unlike traditional industrial robots, cobots do not replace humans but enhance human capabilities.

Overview:

Enhanced Safety
Built-in sensors and force limitations, cobots reduce workplace injuries while enabling human-robot collaboration.
Increased Flexibility
Easily programmable and adjustable, cobots can be repositioned and reprogrammed for various tasks without the need of technical staff.
Improved Productivity
By automating welding processes, cobots can streamline the production process and produce consistent results in manufacturing.
Better Precision
By reducing human error, cobots work with skilled welders to enhance their capabilities and eliminating errors produced by shaky hands or inconsistent speeds.
Cost-Effective Automation
Unlike conventional industrial robots, cobots are an affordable automation solution for even smallest of shops.

Linde Canada offers the following products to help meet the needs of small to medium sized manufacturers:
