Collaborative Robots Working With You

Webinar: Wednesday - May 20, 2026 @ 2:00 PM ET

 

Yaskawa’s HC-series enables safer, more flexible automation for real-world applications.

 
 

Join us for a deep dive into the advantages of our HC Series collaborative robots. Learn how Yaskawa is leading the way with fully industrial-grade collaborative solutions.

Why Attend?

Collaborative robots are here and becoming more integrated into industrial environments. This webinar will explore:

  • How hybrid-mode takes advantage of our robot's full industrial performance while humans are not nearby, but they can automatically switch to collaborative speed when someone enters the operating zone.

  • The advantages of using hand-guided, lead-to-teach workflows for programming tasks like welding or dispensing applications.

  • High 20kg and 30kg payload options which exceed the mistaken assumption that collaborative robots are only capable of light-duty tasks.

  • And more!
