…applications in manufacturing as well. I think because of ease of use and a specific lack of people to do certain tasks, you're going to see continued growth in manufacturing. On the collaborative front, one of our conversations at Automate went into how cobots right now are in the “Wild West” because there isn’t an industry standard for what makes a “collaborative” robot. What are your thoughts on the definition of collaborative robots and how cobots are involved in the robotics industry? Burnstein: I suppose we can call it more of collaborative applications. There's no such thing as a collaborative…

…changes, it noted. Schneider Electric advances machine efficiency “The Lexium Cobot’s high efficiency – through simple programming, quick setup, ease of use, and training – helps industrial companies recover investment costs faster when they modernize their facilities to become smart factories,” said Schneider Electric. It touted the Lexium Cobot's lower cost of ownership, small footprint, and need for only minimal changes to existing production layouts. The new systems can also integrate with EcoStruxure, Schneider Electric’s Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled, “plug-and-play, open,” and interoperable architecture. The cobot and ExoStruxure can reduce design, development, and commissioning time, making machine delivery and startup…
