Slovenia's Sunrise Robotics builds autonomous cells for SMEs on GoFa and raised throughput from 72 to 90 parts per hour by tuning motion parameters alone, without hardware or AI-model changes.
Turkey's ÇEMSAN deployed more than a dozen GoFa cobots for welding, quadrupling efficiency with millimetric precision, according to ABB.
ImageSeven cobots with 3–20 kg payload, faster cycle times than earlier models, SafeSkin contactless sensing and IP68 variants.
ImageLightweight force-controlled 6-DoF arm, used with the LEMO desktop dual-arm platform and teleoperation arms for data collection.
ImageLarge cobot with 20 kg payload (25 kg extended) and 1750 mm reach for palletizing and heavy handling.
ImageMid-size cobot renamed from UR5e in 2025 with a payload upgrade: 7.5 kg payload and 920 mm reach for assembly, inspection and machine tending.
