Considering that there is very little research on automation in the use of collaborative robots in the wire harness assembly process and that this process is carried out manually, causing ergonomic problems for employees who carry out this activity; a development was proposed to incorporate a collaborative robot in this process, for which the UR5 robot and the Cognex IS7905M camera were used, giving an integral solution. Ergonomic problems that could be reduced with the use of the collaborative robot were identified by two methodologies RULA and JSI. With them, it was possible to verify that a collaborative robot reduces non-ergonomic postures in the task of the placing of cable ties.
