Safety Standards for Collaborative Robots

The new collaborative robots are meant to work alongside humans to help them in their production tasks. This new type of industrial robots can be used to do the monotonous jobs, as well as the hazardous ones. These new kinds of robots are easily implemented on the production line. They make automation accessible to small and medium manufacturers via their low cost. They are also synonymous with flexibility, since they adapt to any type of task with little effort. However, an important feature to consider is safety. Since robots are no longer separated from human workers, their safety features become a priority.
