Abstract
Aim of the research is to present the possibilities of applying cooperative robots during the process of automotive metalworking. The study is focusing at the Hungarian medium enterprise sector. Artificial Intelligence and special cobot safety systems - modified by human behavior - are used to demonstrate how production techniques are used at a Hungarian medium enterprise to optimize their processes. The main problem is with flexibility in the automotive metalworking manufacturing industry, such as production line switchover and the processing period. The product price is therefore determined by the competition, and the only way to increase profit is to reduce production and distribution costs. This means that managing and operating the organization and manufacturing in an efficient manner is necessary. One of the success factors is the flexibility of manufacturing by robotization. The proposal solution by this study is a low-load universal cobot system with innovative security solutions for improve the flexibility of manufacturing in an automotive metalworking manufacturing company. This instance is based on a real case study problem in an automotive metalworking manufacturing company.
