FANUC's 'Cobot and Go' puts CRX arms to work in hours

FANUC America debuted a dedicated "Cobot and Go" booth at Automate 2026, showing pre-engineered collaborative systems built for rapid deployment on its CRX series.

The pitch is speed-to-value: application-ready cells for common tasks — palletising, machine tending, inspection — that a shop can stand up in hours rather than weeks of integration.

It reflects where cobots are heading for small and mid-sized manufacturers: less bespoke engineering, more configure-and-run packages that lower the barrier to a first robot.
