Labs and research
Laboratories and research facilities demand some of the most accurate, safe and efficient product handling processes and practices across all industries. In these settings, materials must be handled extremely carefully to protect personnel, keep specimens intact and uphold the quality of production.
Coupled with these safety and accuracy requirements, laboratories must also be concerned with fast, efficient handling to keep processes moving and return results and products in a timely manner.
In laboratories and research facilities, there are a number of standard, repetitive processes that occur in between the intricate scientific work being done.
Cobots can fulfill these processes with an unparalleled level of accuracy and efficiency, operating alongside lab personnel to help them work more quickly and accurately.

Advantages of cobot lab assistance
Versatile, mobile operation: OB7 can be easily moved to several workstations throughout the day and taught different tasks, maximizing the efficiency benefits and return on investment
Improved safety: OB7 is designed to work directly alongside people without fencing or cages. With OB7 taking on the heavy lifting, staff are less likely to be exposed to potentially dangerous materials and fumes, and are less subject to situations such as broken glass or plastic materials.
Increased accuracy in production processes and fulfillment: OB7 cobots are designed to handle tasks as “taught” the same way, every time. When personnel are responsible for these tasks, they are more likely to make mistakes. With OB7, you gain improved accuracy and quality.
Automate with confidence. It's easy to get started.
