Abstract
manufacturing by enhancing productivity, improving safety, and promoting flexibility in production processes. These robots are designed to work alongside human operators, assisting in tasks such as material handling, assembly, inspection, and packaging. Unlike traditional industrial robots, cobots are safe to work in close proximity to humans without the need for safety cages or barriers. This article explores the role of collaborative robots in industrial manufacturing, examining their impact on productivity, efficiency, and workplace safety. We discuss the benefits of cobots in diverse manufacturing sectors and the challenges associated with their integration into existing production systems.
