Automated corona tests with robots and the item X series

Franka Emika GmbH from Munich has developed the world's first automated corona test station. With the use of a specially developed cobot, the test station enables people to get tested without any human interaction. 

The robotic arm "SR-NOCS" is located in an all-round enclosed cabin. The swaps, which must be inserted into the persons nose and mouth, are operated by foot pedals and the process can be paused and restarted at any time. 

This automated system is a good example of how these agile cobots can be programmed to do delicate tasks that require high accuracy and sensitivity.
