Abstract
Τhe integration of human-robot collaboration technology in the industry makes it possible to combine the strong points of a human operator and a robot in a manufacturing cell to improve both its performance and the working environment. As the performance and the smoother integration of this technology depends on the peoples’ attitude, educational programs and hands- on experience with collaborative robots are important to inform and enhance their knowledge on the issue for them to understand the positive effects. In this project an educational collaborative cell was designed and constructed for this purpose. After its use in several workshops, data from the participants have been gathered and analyzed to validate the design and propose changes which could enhance the experience.
