Collaborative Robots

.Ist das alles die gleiche seite?

Collaborative robots, or cobots, are designed to operate in shared workspaces with people without full safety fencing, using limited force and speed or safety-rated monitoring. The suppliers below manufacture, integrate, or distribute collaborative robot arms and related safety components for European manufacturing.

    What Collaborative Robots suppliers provide

    Suppliers in this category manufacture, integrate, or distribute collaborative robot arms designed to share workspace with people, typically for assembly, machine tending, quality inspection, or light material handling. Their core competence lies in application and risk assessment, since collaborative operation depends on the task, tooling, and environment rather than the robot alone, along with selecting appropriate speed and force limits or safety-rated sensing. Many suppliers also provide programming support, gripper selection, and safety validation services. This category is distinct from general industrial robots, which are typically deployed behind fixed safety fencing at higher speed and payload. In the pre-selection phase, compare which payloads, applications, and safety validation experience each supplier specialises in.

    Relevant standards

    Collaborative robot applications are assessed against ISO 10218-1 and ISO 10218-2 for industrial robots and robot systems, together with the collaborative-specific requirements of ISO/TS 15066. The overall risk assessment follows EN ISO 12100, and safety-related control functions commonly reference ISO 13849-1.

    Frequently asked questions

    Does using a collaborative robot mean no safety fencing is required?
    Not automatically. Whether fencing can be omitted depends on a task-specific risk assessment under ISO/TS 15066 and EN ISO 12100, covering the robot, tooling, and workpiece, not the robot model alone.
