High performance collaborative robot Sawyer
Do you have any of the following problems?
- Worried about whether the robot can move safely in the presence of people
- Can you successfully direct and coordinate subtle tasks?
- I want one machine to do multiple jobs for high-mix, small-lot production!
SAWYER is different here!
Soft structure and safety
Flexible 7-axis structure
Reproduction of human work
Reliable domestic maintenance system

Soft structure and high safety
Unique safety features Equipped with SEA (Series Elastic Actuator) to work with people without safety barriers
Soft structure and high safety
You can feel the "bump" or "touch."
Ideal for reproducing human behavior

Image at arm collision

SEA contributing to safety
Even if contact is made, the impact is reduced and the system stops softly for peace of mind.
Arm in collision at 1500mm/sec.

It can be pushed back in the event of a robot collision, making it very safe and secure.
Flexible 7-axis structure
Seven spring-loaded joints provide flexible movement for delicate, human-like "tip-sensing" exploration.
Delicate adjustment of the slightest position

Slight misalignment is covered by the sensor and flexible movement for precise work.
Mimics human skilled work

The flexibility of the joints and the force detection function enable operations that require skilled force, such as polishing work.
Absorbs distance error and follows the opponent

The soft force and smooth operation of the joints gently follow the object without damaging it.
Absorbs distance error and follows the opponent

Parts can be picked up and set quickly and accurately.
Replicate human work
Easy setup for everyone, no technical knowledge required
Direct teaching memorizes and accurately reproduces tasks


Easy setup of complex tasks with a browser

- Can be connected to a PC to set up and change tasks
- Suitable for delicate work while exploring the position
- Intuitive instructions on the 3D screen for position correction after moving to a new location
- Expanded functionality with built-in software upgrades
No programming required, detailed settings in Google Chrome
Testimonials from introduced customers

Automobile manufacturer
We were looking for a robot that we could automate our own processes because they change slightly from month to month. Machine manufacturer sells and maintains I feel secure in the fact that they do the same thing as the domestic manufacturers. I really liked the fact that it was no different from a domestic manufacturer. They also verified the operation of the system before installation, so I was able to purchase the system with peace of mind. Thank you very much.

Technical Department xxx
Sawyer is a revolutionary cooperative robot that can teach directly with both hands because it does not use a teaching pendant system. Sawyer is the only cooperative robot with a flexible joint structure that can reproduce human work, and it can be used in a variety of processes. It is used in the manufacturing industry for loading and unloading equipment, packing boxes, and simple assembly. The eyes on the monitor are designed to look like a human face, so it is also used as a robot to make coffee. It is exactly like a companion who works together with the robot on site.
Landmark function that can correct the position even if the object is misaligned
Correct and accurately work with pick/place locations by loading landmarks first.

Reads landmarks and corrects their positions

Continues the same work even if the positio
