Hirebotics adds line tracking and linear rail capabilities to its cobots
With a new linear rail, Hirebotics cobots, like ones used for welding above, can extend beyond a 68.9-in. reach. | Source: Hirebotics Hirebotics LLC has added extensions to its collaborative robots that enable manufacturers to paint moving parts and reach large, difficult-to-handle materials and assemblies without changing existing workflows. The new extensions include line tracking and modular rail capabilities. The company said these new capabilities extend the working range of the cobots, giv
Get smart on it
A cobot manufacturer has added two new capabilities to its robots: line tracking and linear rail extensions. Line tracking allows painting robots to follow moving parts on conveyor lines while maintaining their programmed path, eliminating the need to stop production. Linear rail extensions let cobots move along the length of large workpieces to reach different sections, solving the problem of parts that exceed the robot's fixed working range. These additions are designed to help manufacturers automate more complex tasks without requiring specialized programming or engineering expertise.
