Robotics Questions Answered

What is the difference between cobots and industrial robots?

+

Cobots (collaborative robots) are designed to operate safely alongside human workers without safety cages, using force-torque sensors and complying with ISO/TS 15066 safety standards. They typically handle payloads up to 20kg at moderate speeds. Industrial robots operate in fenced workcells at higher speeds and payloads (up to 2,300kg for some FANUC models). Cobots are ideal for SMEs and mixed workflows. Industrial robots excel in high-volume, high-speed production. We help you determine which category fits your specific application through our platform advisory process.

How long does a typical robotics deployment take?

+

Timelines vary significantly by project complexity. Simple single-cobot deployments take 2 to 4 weeks from programming to production. AMR fleet deployments with WMS integration typically require 2 to 4 months. Full production line automation projects with multiple robot types, vision systems, and enterprise integration span 4 to 8 months. We always recommend a phased approach: pilot a single cell or zone first, validate performance, then scale. This reduces risk and allows your operations team to build expertise incrementally.

What is the typical ROI payback period?

+

The average across all project types is approximately 3 years, though this varies substantially. Single cobot deployments in high-labor-cost environments (Singapore, for example) often achieve payback in 12 to 18 months. AMR fleet deployments in large warehouses typically see ROI within 18 to 24 months. Key variables include current labor costs, shift patterns, throughput requirements, and the specific application. We provide detailed ROI modeling during the assessment phase using your actual production data, not industry averages.

Which robot brands do you work with?

+

We are vendor-neutral and maintain certified expertise across Universal Robots, FANUC, ABB, KUKA, Yaskawa, Doosan, Techman, Boston Dynamics, Unitree, MiR, and Locus Robotics. For cobots, we most frequently deploy Universal Robots (UR5e, UR10e, UR20) and Doosan M-series. For industrial applications, FANUC and ABB are our most common platform choices. For AMR fleets, the selection depends on your facility layout, payload requirements, and WMS. We never recommend based on vendor incentives. Our platform evaluation matrix scores every option against your specific requirements.

What safety standards do your deployments comply with?

+

Every deployment complies with the relevant international safety standards: ISO 10218-1 and ISO 10218-2 for robot and robot system safety, ISO/TS 15066 for collaborative robot operation, IEC 62443 for industrial cybersecurity, ISO 12100 for general machinery risk assessment, and ISO 13849 for safety-related control systems. We perform comprehensive risk assessments, design safety-rated monitoring systems, and provide full documentation packages for regulatory compliance in Vietnam, Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia. All safety system designs are validated through simulation before physical commissioning.

Can you integrate robots with our existing ERP and MES systems?

+

Yes. Enterprise system integration is a core part of every deployment. We have experience integrating with SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, and custom MES platforms common in ASEAN manufacturing. Integration typically covers production order dispatch, real-time cycle count reporting, quality data capture, OEE metrics, and predictive maintenance triggers. We support standard protocols (OPC UA, MQTT, REST APIs) and build custom middleware when required. Our detailed guide on ERP/MES integration covers the full architecture approach.
