The system is reconfigurable to accommodate changing operational preferences and/or changing facility infrastructure. Its modular and scalable design allows for a single system deployment that can grow in parallel to our customers' increased business requirements. The solution will provide natural feature navigation, so there is no need to add fiducials or reflectors to the operating environment. "Combining our cutting-edge self-driving industrial vehicles with Yaskawa's industry-leading robot arms will enable a new category of automation for machine tending." "We're really excited to partner with Yaskawa to develop the future of mobile manipulation and collaborative robots," said Matt Rendall, chief executive officer at Clearpath. It is designed to increase throughput, reduce operating costs and remain flexible with the changing needs of material flow processes. and is built with industrial grade components to withstand the rigors of industrial environments. The OTTO 1500 offers a payload capacity of 3,300 lbs. Its versatile design provides higher speed, longer reach and increased payload over current mobile manipulator products offered by competitors. The MH12 robot features a 12 kg payload capacity, hollow wrist for reliable EOAT cable management and a 1,440 mm horizontal reach. "This autonomous modular solution provides users an alternative to arranging the work to a fixed robot station." "Our partnership with Clearpath will provide industry with a robust, tightly integrated solution for moving robots to the work in a very flexible and dynamic way," said Roger Christian, divisional leader, new product development at Yaskawa Motoman. This project is currently under development and supported under the advanced research division of Clearpath. This fully integrated solution will feature a Motoman® MH12 robot equipped with end-of-arm tool and vision system, mounted on Clearpath's OTTO 1500 self-driving vehicle. (Dayton, OH – April 8, 2016) – Yaskawa and Clearpath have partnered to develop a mobile machine tending and material movement solution ideal for shop floor environments.
