Is Now The Time to Hire Collaborative Robots?

The introduction of collaborative robots has democratized the use of robotics in many manufacturing fields. Most industries were only using robots for heavy, dirty, or repetitive tasks that require enormous force and reach. Cobots being more flexible and easy to use, they can execute more precise tasks. Because of their human scaled features it is then more interesting to have one on the assembly line. The investment is also lower and the payback is faster than it used to be. Do all these advantages mean it is time to introduce these co-workers to work alongside your human co-workers?
