This integrated solution is a unique combination of three main functions, such as 360-degree labeling, intelligent detection with 3D vision, and gluing on a curved surface. They make the process of industrial automation more safe and flexible.
Dobot's CR10 in Action
Industrial robotic arms are easy to use with a 360-degree labeling feature. The feature will enhance automobile manufacturing to a new level of meeting constantly increasing production demands. DOBOT CR series is one of the examples of this strategy. For instance, the CR5 collaborative robot arms are equipped with an automatic label feeder and customized grippers. Therefore, with these functions, the cobot can become a versatile member of a team. The collaborative robot can cover a wide range of responsibilities, from picking up material to wheel pressure curing.

Gluing on a curved surface
Tesla and Dobot's First Collaboration Case
Automobile manufacturers are constantly seeking novel solutions for their design techniques, creating endless opportunities for robotic arms. For example, the DOBOT CR series offers multiple choice of arm lengths to use in various coating elements. In fact, CR10 has a long 6 axis robot arm to cover an extensive area that can be used in sealing or bonding.

Preventative measures in manufacturing are critical to ensure the high quality of products. For instance, smart detection can reduce the number of defects in automobile engine brackets or other parts of automobile industrialization. This is a smart solution to building effective automobile manufacturing.
The DOBOT CR collaborative robots are accurate and intelligent. They have a precision of up to 0.007 inches. That is why the CR series is perfect for machine tending, screw fastening, assembly, welding pits, burn-through defects, quality inspection, and other applications. With 3D camera function onboard, the DOBOT CR series increases defect detection that can reduce labor costs.
The collaboration of Dobot’s robotic arm and Tesla’s industrial engineering revolutionized the standard manufacturing process. It also transformed the traditional production lines into intelligent and flexible automation. As a result, this innovation has led to growing efficiency and reduced labor costs.
