Cobots, or collaborative robots, are designed to work alongside humans, enhancing efficiency in various applications including manufacturing and medical fields. They offer benefits such as increased production speed, the ability to operate continuously, and the capacity to handle dangerous tasks. However, cobots also present challenges such as high maintenance costs, the need for specialized programming, and potential job displacement.

3. ROBOT AND ROBOTICS
• A robot is a machine especially one programmable by a computer capable of
carrying out a complex series of actions automatically
• Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots ,
as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback ,
and information process.

4. WHAT ARE COBOTS ?.......
• A cobot is defined as a robot that has been designed and built to collaborate
with humans.
• It is a workstation including a robot and a human collaboration.

5. WHY DO WE NEED A COBOT?
 An COBOTS is a robot system used for manufacturing.
 Typical applications of cobots include welding, painting, assembly, pick and
place for printed circuit boards, packaging and labeling, palletizing, product
inspection, and testing; all accomplished with high endurance, speed, and
precision.

6. APPLICATIONS IN MEDICAL FIELD….
Radiation surgery
Angiography
Hippotherapy
 Particle therapy

7. Riding systems
9D movies
Motion pictures
Direction

8. OTHER APPLICATIONS
 Biological Cybernetic Research
 Wearable Robots
 Military Cobots

9. • Cobots more user friendly, intelligent, and most
importantly affordable.
• Cobots increase production and profit margin
because they can complete tasks faster than humans.
• Cobots have the ability to work around the clock.
• Cobots eliminate dangerous jobs for humans as they
work in hazardous environments.
• They can handle lifting heavy loads, toxic substances,
and repetitive tasks.

10. DISADVANTAGES OF COBOTS….
 High standard of maintainance is required
 Precise programmer needed (time,training, specialist knowledge).
 When computer fails causes breakdown.
 New products require reprogramming.
 Complex and costly to be installed.
 People lose jobs.
 Supply of power issues.
