Cover Story: The automotive industry is one of the most automatized industries, employing more than one million robots worldwide. Although several steps in car production are completely automated, many steps are still carried out by operators, especially in tasks requiring high dexterity. In addition, customization and deployability are still pending issues in this industry, where a collaboration between robots and operators would increase the reconfigurability of the assembly lines. This paper presents a human-centric robotic cell focused on motor and gearbox assembly, including collaborative industrial robots and autonomous mobile manipulators. The design incorporates an Industry 5.0 approach, with an enhanced human interface to facilitate the interaction of operators with the complete robotic cell. View this paper
