Feb, 2026, UK —— DOBOT Robotics, in collaboration with the RBTX platform, successfully hosted a partner launch event at igus UK showcasing the practical implementation of accessible and flexible automation solutions.
The event brought together engineers, system integrators, and manufacturers to explore how collaborative robotics can be deployed efficiently with reduced complexity and lower entry barriers. Through live demonstrations, attendees experienced integrated solutions combining robotic arms, motion components, and peripheral technologies, highlighting real-world applications across multiple industries.

A central outcome of the event was the demonstration of how DOBOT’s collaborative robots, particularly the DOBOT Nova 5, the ultra lightweight and compact arms for light industry, enabling rapid adoption of automation in both traditional and emerging sectors. The Nova 5’s compact design, ease of use, and versatility were key factors highlighted during the demonstrations, underscoring DOBOT’s technological strength in accessible automation.
As part of the event engagement, a Nova 5 collaborative robot was awarded to Bob Hinchcliffe, Founder of 3D Food Robotics in Leeds. His company operates at the intersection of robotics, additive manufacturing, and food technology, developing innovative solutions for customized and scalable food production.

“The Nova 5 opens up significant possibilities for us,” said Hinchcliffe. “We are planning to apply it to a high-impact project that could transform a specific area of food production.”
This application example reflects a broader trend observed during the event: DOBOT’s collaborative robots are increasingly being adopted beyond traditional manufacturing environments, enabling new forms of automation in niche and innovation-driven sectors.
By working closely with partners such as RBTX, DOBOT continues to expand its global automation ecosystem, making it easier for customers to access and implement robotic solutions through integrated platforms and localized support.
This partner launch event further highlights a key industry shift—automation is no longer limited to large-scale industrial environments but is becoming a practical and scalable solution for businesses of all sizes, driven by DOBOT’s technological innovation and global partner network.
