Where is Manufacturing Today?
FULLY MANUAL
• High product mix
• High product customization
• 2-year product life
FULLY AUTOMATED
• Low product mix
• Low product customization
• 5-year product life

MANUFACTURING
• Manufacturing is at a turning point given the new market
dynamics and technological breakthroughs.
• In manufacturing, main reasons for inefficiencies in today’s
production are:
• Increasing product individualization
• Shorter product life cycles
• Product and market complexities.
July 19, 2018 | 4© 2018 YASKAWA ALL RIGHTS RESERVED |
DECENTRALIZED MANUFACTURING
• One of the approaches that shows the most promise is
decentralized manufacturing, which is a subcategory of smart
manufacturing.
• The decentralization refers to:
• The production layout
• Flexible scheduling
• Work distribution between humans and robots within the same
manufacturing cell.

CENTRALIZED VS DECENTRALIZED
CENTRALIZED DECENTRALIZED
ADVANTAGES
Better Forecasting Flexibility
Consistent Production Empowers Employees
Lower Cost Materials Lower Material Handling Costs
Easier to implement layout Human Labor availability
CHALLENGES
Inflexible Lack of Consistency
Labor Costs Larger Setup Investment
Demand Response Human & Robot division of labor

WORKING TOGETHER
Collaborative Automation
July 19, 2018 | 7© 2018 YASKAWA ALL RIGHTS RESERVED |
General Misunderstanding
Most people think that
collaborative robot is a robot
used without fences and that
can work with or along humans.
It makes the process
collaborative, but it does not
make a robot collaborative.
WHAT IS A COLLABORATIVE ROBOT?
There are 4 types of collaborative robot features
according to ISO 10218-1 and 10218-2:
Each one of these features by itself qualifies a robot as collaborative
July 19, 2018 | 8© 2018 YASKAWA ALL RIGHTS RESERVED |
Coexistence Cooperation Collaboration
• Robot and human have
separated working areas and
do not interfere frequently
• Human can occasionally
enter working zone of the
robot
• Robot and human have shared
working areas
• Human enters working zone of
the robot frequently
• Both of them work on separate
tasks
• Robot and human have shared
working area
• Human enters the working zone of
the robot frequently or constantly
• Human closely interfaces with the
robot
FORMS OF HUMAN ROBOT COLLABORATION

・This allows for more flexible changes to layouts
according to your production plans.
・Relieve workers from repetitive work and improve
quality by human and robots collaborative operation.
Benefits
Machine tending and
interbay transfer
Pick and place, packaging Quality inspections
and measurements
Assembly
Easily transported to product
line. Improve quality of output
of packaging line.
Flexible change layout according to
product plan. It reduces stopping time
of robot and improves productivity.
HC10/HC10DT can be used even in a narrow, compact layout. Product
quality and output is improved by human and robot collaborative
operation.
Applications
1. Easy to change layout 2.Realize human and robots collaborative operation
