Heavy lifting collaborative robot

The robot uses integrated vision technology, iRVision, to ensure safety by automatically stopping when it touches a human operator. This removes the need for safety fences.

Servicing a variety of manufacturing industries, the CR-35iA can perform both simple and complex tasks lifting payloads of up to 35kg.

Chris Sumner, vice president of FANUC Europe and managing director of FANUC UK, said: "Collaborative robot technology opens up a new era for manufacturing in which humans and robots will work even more closely on tasks; increasing productivity and efficiencies across the plant floor.”
