Print and Apply4PL Cobot

The 4PL Cobot is the right labelling system if you want full agility for your production. It uses the cobot arm, which can be taught-in at the touch of a button, to apply labels to any areas of your product, even hard-to-reach areas (e.g. the inside of a crate).
If the position of the labelling varies, we fit an appropriate scanner to the 4PL Cobot. It searches over control markers to identify the label position where it applies the label with pinpoint precision.

You need the Robotman for different tasks or products? Taught-in processes can be saved and easily reproduced. It only takes a few hours to teach-in new processes and you can do this yourself. This certainly makes the 4PL Cobot a member of your agile production.
