Pioneering design that emphasizes safety, efficiency and
practicality
AMSTERDAM, Sept. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Delta, a global
leader in power management and a provider of IoT-based smart
green solutions, today announced its D-Bot Series Collaborative
Robots (Cobots) have been honoured with the prominent 2024 "Red
Dot: Best of the Best" award for their state-of-the-art design
quality and creativity. The "Best of the Best" accolade, the
highest recognition in the "Red Dot Award: Design Concept"
category, is a testament to Delta's superior capabilities in
designing and developing cutting-edge smart manufacturing
solutions.
Michael Mayer-Rosa, Senior
Director, Industrial Automation Business Group at Delta Electronics
EMEA Region, said, "Delta is highly committed to innovation,
consistently investing over 8% of its revenues into R&D, and
design is a key focus of our innovation strategy. Moreover, this
award from Red Dot reinforces our confidence in having excelled in
the design of our cobots. The cobot segment is one of the
fastest-growing sectors in automation technology*, and Delta
aims to meet this demand with its D-Bot Series Cobots. With a
design boasting industry-leading safety, efficiency and
practicality, we believe Delta's D-Bot Cobots will fulfil the
sophisticated needs of our customers across a broad range of
applications."
The D-Bot Series Collaborative Robots were presented to the
public by Delta for the first time at this year's Hannover Messe.
The Series comprises six highly flexible models of
collaborative industrial robots, each with six axes, payloads of up
to 30 kg and reaches of up to 1,800 mm, as well as compatibility
with EtherCAT, Modbus and CODESYS.
Safety is the top priority
As the cobots are designed for interaction with people in
production environments, safety plays a very important role in the
product design. The innovative "Reflex Safety" recognises contact
at lightning speed and reverses the movement immediately to prevent
accidents and protect both personnel and equipment. The integration
of high-end sensors and collision detection (one-finger tap)
maximise safety.
The D-Bot Series also fulfils the requirements of protection
class IP66 and supports advanced safety protocols for a safe and
efficient work area. Thanks to IP66, the susceptibility to
contamination inside the cobot is also very low and the exterior
can be easily cleaned.
The D-Bot Series from Delta is designed for rapid deployment in
a wide variety of environments. Delta's collaborative robots are
designed for a variety of tasks: the assembly of complicated
components, the handling of materials or heavy palletising tasks,
the D-Bots excel in all areas.
The Red Dot Award is an international prize that was first
awarded in 1954. Every year, a jury of experienced product
designers assesses a wide variety of products based on their design
philosophy. They honour innovative product designs with the
world-famous "Red Dot" seal. The award ceremony will take place on
10 October 2024 in Singapore. Afterwards, the exhibition of the
winners will be opened at the Red Dot Design Museum in Singapore.
Notes:
(*) Forecasts by market researchers at Interact Analysis expect
the global demand for cobots to achieve an annual growth rate
of approximately 20 percent until 2032. Link:
