GoFa Collaborative Robot
GoFa is ABB's game-changing cobot that teams up safely with humans—no fences or barriers needed. In three payload sizes (5, 10, 12 kg), it leads the pack in speed, precision, and safety with torque sensors in every joint. Add the GoFa Ultra Accuracy option for path accuracy down to 0.03 mm, ideal for gluing, sealing, laser welding, and precision cutting. Its easy graphical apps on the FlexPendant make programming a breeze for newbies and pros alike.
