Boost Production Efficiency with Collaborative Robots
The need for flexible and efficient automation is rapidly increasing across industries. Collaborative robots (cobots) boost productivity and safety by working alongside your team to handle repetitive tasks, all while seamlessly integrating into existing workflows.
At Shaltz Automation, we offer expert cobot solutions to help you harness their full potential. Our scalable solutions are perfect for applications such as machine tending, assembly, and more. Whether optimizing your current processes or implementing new systems, cobots provide quick ROI and long-term operational benefits.
How Cobots Are Revolutionizing Your Operations
Your Most Dependable Production Partner
A collaborative robot (cobot) is designed to work alongside human workers, offering a new level of collaboration on the shop floor. Unlike traditional industrial robots that require safety barriers, cobots are built for direct interaction with your team. They are user-friendly, versatile, and ideal for repetitive, physically demanding, or even hazardous tasks.
Cobots are transforming industries by solving key operational challenges. With rising labor costs and increasing safety concerns, cobots enhance productivity, improve workplace safety, and streamline operations—allowing your business to achieve more with less.
Unlock the ROI Potential of Cobots
Implementing cobots not only improves your production processes but also delivers significant return on investment. The initial cost of cobots is quickly recouped through reduced labor expenses, minimized downtime, and increased throughput, making them a cost-effective solution for long-term business growth.

Explore key cobot applications designed to streamline your operations and optimize productivity.
Machine Tending
Cobots streamline the loading and unloading of CNCs and presses, boosting efficiency, minimizing errors, and reducing operator fatigue.
Palletizing
Cobots optimize palletizing by efficiently stacking products and materials onto pallets, enhancing consistency and reducing manual labor in high-volume operations.
Pick and Place
Cobots excel in precise pick and place tasks, swiftly and accurately moving components or products to various locations on the production floor, enhancing workflow efficiency.
Assembly
Cobots enhance assembly lines by performing repetitive tasks, such as part assembly and screwdriving, with high precision, increasing speed and minimizing errors.
Hazardous Environments (C1D1)
Cobots are perfect for hazardous environments like C1D1 areas, where they safely manage dangerous materials and processes, minimizing risks to human workers and improving safety.
Welding
Cobots deliver precise welding, ensuring consistent, high-quality welds for spot and arc welding applications. They are especially effective in small-batch and custom production runs, enhancing efficiency and weld quality.
Lab Automation
Cobots streamline repetitive tasks in laboratories, including sample preparation and testing, boosting efficiency, consistency, and accuracy. This automation allows staff to focus on more complex tasks, enhancing overall productivity.
Inspection
Cobots with vision systems and sensors perform precise product inspections, detecting defects and quality issues. This ensures consistent quality control while minimizing the risk of human error.
