Cobots in Smart Manufacturing and Production for Industry 5.0

Abstract

Industry 5.0 has brought the dawn of advanced human-centric and customized applications. It offers a blend of cutting-edge technologies for the welfare of mankind. The incorporation of machine learning, cyber-physical systems, and automation is a perfect combination for building high-end applications for repeatable, sustainable, and customizable products or processes. It paves the way for future industries' both commercial and noncommercial applications and even personalized healthcare. Under the taboo, Cobots are collaborative robots working with humans to rigorously incorporate infrastructure for any application not only restricted to manufacturing. Imbibing the notion of machine learning and digital twins has proved to build lot of expectation around the technology. The cobot technology overcomes the major challenges of Industry 5.0 like work polarization and training workforce. The safety perspective is also incorporated by incorporation of universal standards. The threat of security attack can be thwarted using proper security measures. Thus, Industry 5.0 hand in hand with cobots can usher the growth of industries toward human welfare.
