Comau & Siemens launch a common portfolio
22 September 2017
Comau has joined forces with Siemens to meet the growing interest in Industry 4.0 digitalisation solutions.
Leveraging Comau’s wide range of robot arms and Siemens’ smart solutions for handling and processing with robots, the companies have developed a dedicated portfolio for the full integration of Comau robotic arms into the Siemens SINUMERIK system. Through this technology, the SINUMERIK control can be used as a stand-alone robot controller without the need for external or embedded robot controllers.
At EMO 2017, visitors had the opportunity to witness how the integrated Comau robot, as digital twin, is easily operated from the SINUMERIK. Applications, including: additive manufacturing, tape laying, fibre placement, machining with robots, nondestructive testing and more, can now be easily and cost-effectively deployed by companies of all sizes. In addition, the commitment to open-engineering by both companies is mirrored by the openness of the SINUMERIK system, which allows the implementation of customised features even at a level of high application complexity.
Comau’s solutions are designed to help companies improve their competitiveness and achieve their manufacturing goals. Joint development activities and technology partnerships, such as the collaboration agreement with Siemens, are examples of Comau’s commitment to innovation and its approach to collaborative, digital manufacturing.
