Abstract
- Human Robot Collaboration (HRC) have proved to be effective if compared to traditional hybrid automation in assembly tasks, especially when human-like sensitivity and high quality are required. However, a rigorous engineering design is mandatory in order to successfully apply HRC to Industry. Academy and Industry are asked to jointly work for exploiting the technical opportunities given by robots and humans. Scientific literature often describes the application of HRC in manufacturing but rarely presents systematic engineering design approaches. The present paper investigates and describes the systematic design of a HRC workcell for assembling bio-medical products. Moreover, productivity and profitability of the developed solution are evaluated and discussed.
