Cooryc supplies fully customized collaborative robots using additive manufacturing, featuring a modular 3D‑printed six‑degree‑of‑freedom arm and an adjustable gripper that can trade stiffness for compliance without springs. The hardware integrates natively with ROS and Simulink, and is offered with on‑demand printing, low‑power operation, and ongoing technical‑support contracts for mid‑size manufacturers, system integrators, and R&D labs.

Problem
Manufacturers often face high upfront costs and limited flexibility when adopting collaborative robots, especially when standard off‑the‑shelf grippers and arms cannot be tuned for specific payloads, energy budgets, or integration environments. This hampers rapid automation of niche or low‑volume production lines.
Solution
Cooryc delivers fully customized collaborative robotic solutions built on additive manufacturing. A modular gripper combines rigid actuation with adaptive, sub‑actuated fingers, allowing users to trade stiffness for compliance without additional springs, thereby reducing actuator load and power draw. The companion six‑degree‑of‑freedom arm is 3D‑printed from high‑strength polymers, runs a GRBL‑derived firmware, and offers native ROS topics and Simulink blocks for seamless integration into existing control stacks. By leveraging on‑demand 3‑D printing, Cooryc can iterate designs quickly, keep material costs low, and provide end‑to‑end technical support that ensures reliable operation throughout the product lifecycle.
Target Audience
Primary customers are mid‑size manufacturers, system integrators, and R&D labs that require adaptable, low‑energy collaborative robots for bespoke automation tasks.
Features
