Mitsubishi’s cobots can be programmed via a PC, touch screen HMI, or by hitting the ‘save’ button and guiding and teaching the arm through the required sequence of movements. Mitsubishi cobots will be suitable for non-expert engineers, as an introductory step to using robots in a factory environment.
Where the cobot stands out from other existing collaborative automation solutions, Mitsubishi claims, is in its positional repeatability. The cobot can offer positioning accuracies as low as ±0.02 mm. This is comparable with other industrial robots produced by Mitsubishi.
