Flexiv Partners With Handplus Robotics to Deliver Leading-Edge Robotic Solutions
Combining Flexiv’s force-controlled AI-powered robots with Handplus’s proven integration capacity, companies in Singapore and Malaysia now have easy access to adaptive robotic technology.
Flexiv, a world leader in general-purpose robotics solutions, today announced its partnership with Handplus Robotics, a Singaporean-based automation integration company.
With demand for Flexiv's automation solutions growing year-on-year, Handplus's already established distribution network within Singapore and Malaysia will empower Flexiv to meet the needs of an ever-increasing customer base.
Over the past two years, Flexiv's partner network has grown rapidly to deal with this demand and features partners worldwide.
Flexiv's Senior Sales Manager for the Asia Pacific region, Owen Wu, said, "This partnership with Handplus will enable more end-users to take advantage of the opportunities afforded by adaptive robotic technology. We have seen substantial growth over the past two years, and this strategic partnership with Handplus will enable us to expand our market presence without compromising the service we provide to our clients. Working together, Flexiv and Handplus will enable customized smart solutions to be created, which will reduce the effects of labor bottlenecks and decrease the ROI period."
Albert Causo, the CEO and founder of Handplus, said, "Flexiv is the ideal partner for us as they offer a different kind of robotic arm which is a game-changer for applications which require sensitivity and fast response times. The added functionality of a seventh axis and the force control capacity has opened an extra dimension of possibility for us. If robots are to be used for tasks which require human-like dexterity and sensitivity, Flexiv has the robots to do it. We are confident that our partnership will be mutually beneficial, and we look forward to what will surely be a very successful 2023."
Since releasing their first commercially available adaptive robot in 2018, Flexiv has been committed to providing automation solutions that truly help improve the world. By removing the need for workers to complete dangerous, dirty, or unfulfilling tasks, staff can be redeployed to more rewarding jobs that require a human touch.

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.
