Could cobots make us happier?

### Hold on – what’s a cobot?

In case you didn’t read the blog, a cobot is **a robot designed for direct human-and-robot collaboration,** with robots and humans working together in a shared space.

### Cobots in F&B

In the food industry specifically, there are **numerous applications for cobots** – and more and more companies are integrating them into their operations.

Uses include…

* Packing and palletising
* Machine monitoring
* Choosing and arranging
* Process chores
* Quality checking
* Assembling, pouring, spraying, or dipping

…and more.

Increasingly, cobots are **thought to improve employee happiness** – with [Gen Z](https://www.information-age.com/cobots-tech-attracting-gen-z-workforce-19793/)workers particularly open to experimenting with robot collaboration as a way to create a more fulfilling, more creative, and less repetitive work environment.

**And as robotics tech develops, and more systems utilise the power of AI and machine learning, the potential for human-robot collaborations is growing.**

Do you use cobots in your F&B business? We’d love to hear your experiences.
