OMRON Asia Pacific, a world leader in industrial automation options throughout Asia Pacific, has launched it's new cellular robotic known as the HD-1500. The robot boasts a heavy payload capacity of up to 1500kg and is the strongest and most modern addition to the company’s portfolio of cellular robots. The HD-1500 comes off the heels of OMRON's LD-250 cell robot, which was once launched globally in the fall of 2019.
Independent material management is of utmost importance in industrial automation today as groups face labor shortages alongside with challenges in enforcing new social distancing norms due to the COVID pandemic.
OMRON's cellular robots can routinely calculate the exceptional route for fabric transportation whilst navigating safely around humans and limitations barring the use of neither magnetic flooring tapes nor different guides. The new HD-1500 cell robotic has a 1500kg payload potential which can be used to transport massive car components, such as, automobile chassis and voluminous pallet measurement payloads – things that would have historically been moved the usage of forklifts.
With the launch of HD-1500, OMRON's cellular robots reap a seamless lineup of fashions that can transport a large range of objects – from aspects to WIP (work in progress), completed products, and heavy material. OMRON's industry-first "Fleet Manager" can manage up to a hundred cellular robots with exclusive sizes, configurations and payload capacities beneath one system, for this reason enabling clients to make use of the HD-1500 collectively with OMRON's current robots – LD-60/90 and LD-250 – to automate the complicated cloth transport and logistics purposes with the most excellent allocation of robots barring site visitors so that they can extend the whole effectiveness of fabric dealing with internal the factory.
The HD-1500 gives 360-degree security insurance merchandising a collaborative and secure working space. With the launch of HD-1500, the quit function accuracy of the CAPS (Cell Alignment Positioning System) has additionally been improved. The addition of the HD-1500 additionally strengthens
“Onsite logistics, the motion of merchandise and cloth inside the manufacturing unit and warehouse, is turning into an actual bottleneck for many corporations due to the frequency and tediousness of the job, compounded through rising labor fees and the want to meet social distancing protocols. Fast-paced manufacturing environments require velocity and flexibility. OMRON's HD-1500 cell robotic can assist corporations to clear up this difficulty due to the fact it can work 24 hours a day tirelessly, punctually, and safely in the identical surroundings as people," stated Tom Mathias, President, and CEO of OMRON Robotics and Safety Technologies, Inc., the main company of robotics and security options for manufacturing industries and a section of OMRON's Industrial Automation Business.
