Autonomous mobile cobot for warehouse logistics
In warehouse logistics, the demand for flexible and efficient material handling solutions is critical for maintaining seamless workflow and reducing downtime. Challenges often include navigating complex paths, ensuring safety in dynamic environments, and handling varied tasks without significant reprogramming or manual intervention.
Enable dynamic task handling and obstacle recognition
The KMR iisy is an autonomous mobile cobot developed by KUKA, designed to seamlessly integrate into warehouse logistics and production environments. Equipped with a combination of a collaborative robot (cobot) and a mobile platform, it ensures dynamic use at different workstations. The cobot LBR iisy, integrated with safety scanners and 3D cameras, can detect obstacles up to two meters above ground and avoid potential collisions. Utilizing SLAM technology, it navigates autonomously and stops in front of unforeseen obstacles. Additionally, it features flexible navigation via QR codes for precise positioning. With a load capacity of up to 200 kg on the mobile platform and 11-15 kg on the cobot, the KMR iisy supports diverse tasks such as pick-and-place, loading and unloading, and material transport. It is also suitable for cleanrooms due to its low particle emissions and ESD certification.
Benefits
- Enables effective use of cobot across multiple workstations
- Ensures high collision protection with integrated safety systems
- Suitable for cleanroom applications with low particle and emission levels
- Supports 24/7 operation with inductive charging
- Facilitates precise material handling with autonomous navigation
