THE MOST CAPABLE TABLETOP ROBOT

Small and mighty

Spark is a powerful, compact, and high-precision industrial tool built to automate critical processes with ease and peace of mind.

Automate strenuous tasks

Spark relieves workers from taxing, tedious tasks like fastening, screwdriving, sanding, polishing, pipetting and sample sorting.

Work side-by-side all day

Spark is safe, quiet, and roughly the size of a desk lamp, making it the perfect workbench collaborator and productivity multiplier.

High-resolution force sensing control

Spark continuously senses changes in force and torque, enabling ultra-delicate task automation such as part insertions, material testing, and sensitive sample handling.

Frequently asked questions

Spark is designed to be the perfect desktop collaborative companion. Automate the most strenuous, tedious, and delicate tasks in your workflow with industry-leading repeatability.

Does the Spark cobot support vision and AI?

Yes. Spark uses our proprietary AI platform and integrates with third-party vision systems for adaptive tasks. Vision hardware can be added as a bundled purchase.

Is the Spark cobot IP certified?

Yes. The Spark robot arm is rated IP69K, making it suitable for environments requiring washdown resistance or exposure to dust and moisture.

The control box is rated IP44 and is intended for standard industrial or lab environments.

How accurate is the Spark cobot?

Spark delivers repeatability of ±0.025 mm, enabling precise, consistent motion for tasks like pick & place, inspection, and lab handling.

How loud is the Spark arm?

Spark operates quietly with typical noise levels below 58 dB, depending on program speed and payload. This makes it suitable for labs, classrooms, and shared workspaces.

Which end effectors are compatible with the Spark cobot?

Spark uses an M8 8-pin tool connector and is compatible with leading electric and mechanical grippers, including two-finger, three-finger, and suction grippers.

Power and I/O are provided directly through the tool flange for simplified integration.

Can the Spark cobot be moved manually?

Yes. Spark supports manual guidance for teaching and setup, enabling intuitive waypoint definition and rapid programming.

Can the Spark cobot be operated offline?

Yes. Spark can run locally without an active internet connection once programs are deployed. Network connectivity is only required for software updates, remote support, or connected applications.

Can I reconfigure or reprogram my Spark cobot easily? Can I save and reuse programs?

Yes. Spark is designed for fast reconfiguration between tasks. Programs can be saved, reused, and adapted across applications. This makes Spark well suited for flexible automation and changing workflows.
