Optima collaborative robots are used throughout the food and beverage supply chain in a wide range of secondary processes such as packaging and machine tending. Cobots can work in conditions from humid greenhouses to refrigerated rooms to tending hot ovens, relieving employees from repetitive tasks that can cause injury in unfavourable environments.
Cobots can work around the clock without breaks. This is ideal for seasonal bursts, where cobots can meet production requirements without the need for additional or temporary workers. Factories can exploit the full flexibility of cobots by redeploying them to new product lines or different processes as production volumes change.
Universal Robots’ cobots automate repetitive, physically demanding tasks like packaging and palletizing, helping food and beverage producers increase efficiency, reduce workplace injuries, and meet seasonal demand spikes with ease.
