With its parent company Doosan Group, Doosan Robotics offers its flagship lineup of collaborative robots (cobots). Introduced to the North American market at Automate 2019, these four cobot models enable customers to experience safe, versatile and easy-to-use automation. Doosan's ergonomically designed cobots can serve a variety of customer needs and offer a broad range of capabilities: a working radius of 35.4" to 66.9" (900 mm to 1,700 mm) and a load capacity of 13.2 lbs. to 33.1 lbs.
The 6-axis Doosan cobots are equipped with their own proprietary torque sensors on all six joints, providing enhanced collision sensitivity. The technology of the torque sensors also enables these robots to be used in diverse applications that utilize advanced force and compliance control algorithms.
Powered by a teach pendant, which is a human-centered touchscreen control embedded with Doosan's software, Doosan cobots are intuitive to teach and easy to operate, enabling customers to take full control without having to write complicated programming scripts.
At Automate 2019, Doosan provided presentations explaining the characteristics and competitive advantages of Doosan robots, as well as how they are deployed in real life situations. Visitors also saw practical applications of Doosan cobots.
The demonstration areas covered three key benefits of Doosan cobots: applications, user-friendly experience and accessories:
- Applications: To showcase the full range of their capabilities, Doosan cobots were aligned to track a conveyer, assemble gears and arrange letters to spell words as programmed. The main demonstration featured automotive composite solutions, where six cobots collaborated with two human workers to execute fine motor activities including inspection, assembly and placement of parts on an actual automobile.
- User-friendly experience: "Another key feature of Doosan cobots is their intuitive user experience, led by software that allows users easy operation of all features. Equipped with this easy-to-use interface, visitors can use and control cobots and provide direction through an effortless teaching process," said a company spokesperson.
- Accessories: The demos highlighted a wide range of accessories desinged to maximize performance and production efficiency. These accessories include Mobile Base, a solution enabling flexible relocation and movement equipped with a direct teaching unit and Smart Vision Module System. The Smart Vision Module System allows cobots to inspect the surrounding area using mounted cameras.
"We are in the middle of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, where collaborative robots play a key role. Humans will be increasingly empowered to achieve higher levels of efficiency and immediate productivity gains through harnessing technology," said Byungseo Lee, CEO of Doosan Robotics. "Doosan is leading this transformation with the creation of our innovative cobots, which will help unlock productivity for our customers in North America."
