Product Overview

The CobotLite-500C is a compact, high-precision desktop collaborative robot engineered for agile automation in SMEs, R&D labs, and production line integration. Designed for safety, simplicity, and scalability, this cobot delivers industrial-grade performance in a space-saving footprint—ideal for benchtop deployment without requiring safety cages or complex infrastructure. With a 500mm reach and robust 3kg payload robot capability, it handles assembly, pick-and-place, screw driving, and quality inspection tasks with sub-millimeter repeatability. Its ROS 2 cobot compatibility enables seamless integration with modern robotic middleware, AI vision stacks, and custom control pipelines—accelerating prototyping and deployment across smart manufacturing environments.

Engineered for rapid adoption, the CobotLite-500C features true plug-and-play setup: powered via standard USB-C + 24V DC, calibrated out-of-box, and controlled via intuitive web-based GUI or ROS 2 nodes. Built-in torque-sensing joints and ISO/TS 15066-certified force-limiting ensure safe human–robot collaboration—no external safety scanners needed.
