…shelf-lifter that pulls carts from MiR partner ROEQ allowed DENSO to expand quickly into other areas using the same cart base and customizing it for each use. As the engineering team receives additional requests for automated conveyance, they can easily design racks around the carts, helping to free up space, increase flexibility, and gain advantages more quickly. AMRs improve employee morale, retention DENSO employees were walking up to 12 miles per day moving material between production areas and the warehouse,…
…invest in a larger, more expensive robot. ROEQ said its new TMC500 top module and Cart500 not only doubles the LD-250's payload, but it also provides a standardized, safe, and flexible solution for internal logistics tasks. “This exciting new relationship with ROEQ gives our customers access to fast and cost-effective options for their toughest mobile automation initiatives,” stated Kyle Hable, group product manager, at OMRON Robotics and Safety Technologies Inc. “OMRON customers around the world depend on our mobile robots…
…Industrial Robots (MiR) combined with MRE from ROEQ (short for “Robotic Equipment”) to automate some key processes. The operation uses a combination of MiR200 AMRs combined with ROEQ TMC300 top modules, carts, and docking stations. The top modules communicate with the AMRs. Meanwhile, the carts carry materials, with the cart designed to distribute load weight, effectively boosting each AMR’s payload capacity while contributing to enhanced fleet productivity. MiR fleet and ROEQ MRE digitize supply chain “Our fleet consists of six…
…partner ecosystem of technology leaders Kinexon and ROEQ to provide customers a leading-edge AMR solution out of one hand.” Continental says its AMRs are versatile, maneuverable Since 2020, Continental has successfully deployed its AMRs at several of its production locations worldwide. The company said it built its mobile robots in-house to meet the demands and challenges of factories that are taking advantage of automation and artificial intelligence. With measurements of only 1,455 mm (57 in.) length, 630 mm (24 in.)…
…mobile robots gain capabilities with new accessories. ROEQ recently launched a module and cart that will more than double the payload of Mobile Industrial Robots' MiR250. The TMS-C500 Ext module and the S-Cart500 Ext cart work together to increase MiR250’s payload from 250 to 500 kg (551 to 1,102 lb), according to ROEQ. The TMS-C500 Ext is placed on top of the autonomous mobile robot (AMR) and slides into position under the S-Cart500 Ext. Founded in 2017, ROEQ develops and…
…manufacturing facilities to do more with less. ROEQ yesterday announced that it has added payload capacity and lifting flexibility in two top modules for mobile robots. The Vissenbjerg, Denmark-based company said its new products will help end users achieve productivity goals and mitigate workforce shortfalls while avoiding the need to make major capital investments in automation. Founded in 2017, ROEQ said it develops mobile robotic equipment (MRE) to bridge the gap between the warehouse and production, allowing industry to achieve…
…layer.” Top modules from partners such as ROEQ for the MiR600 and 1350 offer flexibility “out of the box” without requiring extensive customization for different tasks or workflows, said MiR. These top modules enable the AMRs to pick up and drop off pallets and carts for easy integration and scalability throughout the entire value chain, it claimed. “Dimensionally, the new robots are close to the MiR500 and MiR1000, so they will work with existing pallet racks and top modules such…
…ensures an ergonomic environment for workers. Source: ROEQ Avoid DIY remorse Harbour raises an important point. This knowledge gap around the importance of professionally designed, fully functional mobile robotic equipment has given rise to a trend of companies trying to build and deploy their own equipment. I know this because a significant number of our end users are former DIYers in the MRE space. They have tried to design and deploy their own MRE and, despite several design tweaks and…
