Iconsys launches mobile robot for Industry
The iAM-R is an autonomous mobile robot (AMR), representing the first step for Telford-based iconsys in their journey towards providing autonomous robotic solutions to their customers.
Iconsys, one of the UK's leading automation system integrators, has branched out into autonomous mobile solutions with the launch of its iAM-R (iconsys Autonomous Mobile Robot).
The iAM-R is an autonomous mobile robot (AMR), representing the first step for Telford-based iconsys in their journey towards providing autonomous robotic solutions to their customers.
The iAM-R takes automation to a new level and offers a combination of flexible robotic automation with autonomous navigation and delivers a very adaptive solution for manufacturing and logistical processes. Flexible route-planning, intelligent obstacle avoidance and network communication enable the iAM-R to perform tasks independently.
The iAM-R was launched in June at the Made in the Midlands Expo at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry. Showcased to an expectant audience, the robot demonstrated its collaborative machine tending capabilities, it's flexibility to interface with vision systems and multi-layer technology platforms. A high volume of interest was generated on the day, which led to several requests for onsite demonstrations.
Managing Director Nick Darrall, said: "We are delighted to finally launch the iAM-R. Because it is fully customisable, we believe there are all kinds of industrial manufacturers who could benefit from the integration of our mobile robot solutions. The iconsys team is looking forward to working with new customers - and developing further autonomous mobile solutions in the future."
Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
