Kawasaki Robotics unveils CL Series cobots developed with NEURA Robotics at IMTS

Kawasaki Robotics announced the CL Series collaborative robots, co-developed with NEURA Robotics, at IMTS 2024 on Sept. 5, 2024.

What happened

Kawasaki Robotics announced the new CL Series collaborative robots, co-developed with NEURA Robotics, on Sept. 5, 2024, ahead of IMTS 2024, which will be held in Chicago from Sept. 9-14. The CL Series covers payloads from 3 kg at 590 mm to 10 kg at 1,000 mm, with a 15 kg model scheduled to enter the market within one year. The robots have a speed of 200°/s, repeatability of ±0.02 mm and an IP66 rating.

Why it matters

For manufacturing professionals considering cobots, the CL Series offers models ranging from 3 kg to 10 kg and can be used without protective covers in crowded or harsh environments. Kawasaki Robotics says the design makes the robots easy to operate while maintaining collaboration with people in tasks such as machine tending and welding.
