The new piCOBOT Electric heads towards another success for Piab's piCOBOT program.
The piCOBOT program has been a success ever since its original introduction in 2017. The first piCOBOT model was in 2022 accompanied by the larger, even more powerful, piCOBOT L model.
As part of the company's product development, Piab's engineers last year focused on a version that would perform on the same level as its sibling piCOBOT, but without the need for compressed air.
But the developments do not end with electrification. During the pre-study, the R&D team compiled an agenda containing a number of tough prerequisites.
A secondary effect of these achievements is the absence of entangling air tubing and cabling. It simplifies the installation, and as the new piCOBOT Electric only needs a single connection on the cobot arm, the clean set-up allows a completely unrestricted movement.
The new piCOBOT Electric package will contain plug & play software to fit UR e-series cobots, but many other useful adaptations will be introduced the coming year.
