Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently asked questions about types of industrial robots and their applications
Much depends on speed and precision requirements. For fast sorting or moving lightweight objects, robots of the type Delta or SCARA, while for higher loads, it is common to use articulated robots or Cartesian.
- AGV (Automated Guided Vehicles) usually move along designated routes (e.g. magnetic strips) and may require minor modifications to the facility.
- AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robots) use visual or laser navigation technologies, allowing them to adapt to changing environments without permanent markers.
Implementation time depends on project complexity, the number of robots and the degree of integration with the existing system (e.g. MES, ERP). Initial projects can be launched within a few weeks, while more extensive installations may take several months.
The cost depends on the robot type, such as Cartesian, SCARA, or articulated, additional accessories such as vision systems and grippers, and the extent of process modifications. At NexaRob, we offer various financing options, including leasing and loans, and help obtain funding from national or EU programs.
Yes, cobots are designed to work in close proximity to people. They are equipped with advanced collision-detection systems that limit movement speed and force. Even so, every installation must be preceded by a risk assessment and take appropriate safety standards into account.
It is worth consulting our team of experts. Based on a process audit and needs analysis, we will propose optimal solutions while taking into account production requirements, the planned budget, and financing options.
Not necessarily. It is often sufficient to integrate the robot into the existing environment and adapt it to current production lines and control systems. In some cases, upgrading line components can provide additional benefits, but it is not always necessary.
Integration with production and data management systems (IoT, MES, ERP) enables ongoing monitoring of robot operation, improves production planning, and makes it easier to respond quickly to changes in demand. It also enables collection of valuable data for analysis, supporting further process optimization.
Yes, we provide comprehensive after-sales support, from regular maintenance inspections and rapid response to failures to modernization and expansion of existing solutions. We also work with a global network of parts suppliers, enabling us to efficiently provide customers with the components they need.
