Leading product design experts recognize ABB’s GoFa collaborative robot for innovative design to make robots more approachable.

ABB’s GoFa cobot was awarded the prestigious ‘Red Dot Best of the Best design Award’ in recognition of its unique design concept to make the new robot appealing and accessible to users.

The global Red Dot Design Awards recognize achievements in product design, with the jury assessing thousands of entries every year.  Red Dot’s “Best of the Best” award is for ground-breaking design and is the highest award in the competition, reserved for the most aesthetically appealing, functional, smart or innovative design.

GoFa is the fastest cobot in its class and is intended to work side-by-side with humans, without the need for fences, on a wide range of tasks. Advanced safety features, including intelligent sensors in each joint which bring the cobot to a stop in milliseconds if it senses any unexpected contact, allow GoFa to safely operate directly and continuously alongside workers.
