The YARO-1608 from YardStick Robotics is a collaborative robot designed for automation tasks in demanding industrial environments. With a payload of 8 kg and a reach of 1,600 mm, it is suitable for applications where components, tools or end-effectors need to be moved across a large working area.

The robot is designed for use in changing and harsh environmental conditions. These include, amongst other things, dust, water, vibrations and temperatures ranging from −20 to 50 °C. This means it can also be used in areas where many conventional cobots are only of limited suitability.

The YARO-1608 can be adapted to different tasks and operating locations. Depending on the application, additional functions such as object recognition, force control, vibration control or specialised sensor technology can be integrated.

Typical areas of application include inspection, handling and maintenance tasks in industry, agriculture, energy supply and security applications, as well as in hard-to-reach or potentially hazardous environments.
