Step 8 Successfully Implement A Cobot Into Your Operations

The Future

Automation is the future of manufacturing, and cobots fit right in there.

To quote Winston Churchill:

โ€œThis is not the beginning of the end. This is perhaps the end of the beginning.โ€

A Few Parting Tips to Review on Implementing A Cobot

As we conclude our blog series on successfully implementing cobots into your operations, we have a few final tips for you.

  • Do your homework before you choose. Talk to multiple cobot suppliers and investigate multiple brands. Consider all aspects of the cobot, from capabilities through implementation support to maintenance.
  • Find someone you can lean on for advice. Maybe you know another manufacturer whoโ€™s already begun implementation. Maybe your supplier has a lot of experience in implementations. Sometimes all you need is a few questions answered or a few tips. Someone whoโ€™s been there can save you a lot of time and money with a few simple conversations.
  • Start simple. Always, always, always start with the easiest job, even if itโ€™s not the one you need the most. Get the โ€œeasyโ€ job running. Your team will learn the ropes; employees will become comfortable; and your cobot will quickly start paying its way.

And finally, once again, take one last look at all the information you have compiled.
