The Role of Collaborative Mobile Robots in Industry 4.0

by Leave a Comment

Nowadays, the creation of workspaces in which humans and robots can work together, not only safely but in a more efficient and optimized way, is possible thanks to the called Connected Industry based on sharing all the information to get a better answer.

Inside the Industry 4.0, the use of mobile robots and mobile manipulators achieves the flexible and autonomous industrial automation necessary to create Smart Factories, where the greatest advantage is the exchange of information, which it is possible by the integration of the latest intelligent technologies in robotics, Internet, Artificial Intelligence or Big Data, and as a consequence, more efficient and optimal industrial processes will be created, with better use of resources, which means greater productivity in general.

Robotnik has launched its mobile platform Steel Summit XL. This is the new member of the Summit XL family, which stands out for having an ultra resistant steel structure capable of supporting up to 75 kg.

The new mobile platform uses open architecture and modular control based on ROS and allows easily integrate a variety manipulators and sensors.

The mobile robot has differential kinematics and can also be configured with omnidirectional wheels, which provide greater mobility while improving the accuracy indoors.

Depending on its final application, the platform can integrate diverse sensors, such as GPS, cameras, lasers 2D and 3D structures, torsos and manipulators. These components allow the robot to navigate autonomously or remotely and perform manipulation tasks.
