Educational robot

The rapid development of digitisation is fundamentally changing production processes and is therefore demanding new skills and competencies. It is therefore important that tomorrow's specialists and managers are prepared for the new challenges. The Low Cost Automation training program starts right there, as practical relevance is guaranteed. The reason for this is that robots developed and produced for industry can be used in training courses. This ensures a seamless entry into industrial robotics. Moreover, safety, as igus® products are CE-compliant and thus meet applicable safety standards and, finally, low-cost solutions, whether individual components for DIY or complete systems - adapt the scope of solutions to your requirements.
