THIRA ROBOTICS' SECOND-GENERATION AMR CREATES DEMAND IN U.S. MARKET AHEAD OF AUTOMATE EXHIBIT
Units are prepared and ready for sale, featuring a triple safety system and award-winning drive technology that overcomes current challenges.
THIRA ROBOTICS - an S. Korean autonomous mobile robots developer and a subsidiary of THiRA UTech announced their upcoming AUTOMATE exhibition with the goal of providing optimized AMR units for employees in complex facilities. THIRA ROBOTICS (TR) officially launched in the U.S. in March to overcome typical weaknesses of the previous generation of AMRs leveraged in healthcare and supply chain use cases, and has won all bids against top competitors. Live demonstrations will be held at AUTOMATE in Detroit from May 22 - 25.
"First-generation AMR was optimized for facilities with low human traffic and smooth flooring conditions. Our second-generation robotics are real-life-ready logistics, navigating settings with highly complex human traffic, sloped floors, liquid spills, elevators, narrow hallways, and more," explains Peter Kim, CEO of TR.
Each unit in TR's product line has an AWG system that enables smooth wheel navigation over challenging floors. A triple safety system is also built into each, providing advanced visual recognition and stopping accuracy to reduce the potential for injury. Data from internal company records are never collected, protecting patrons' and employees' personal information.
"In S. Korea, we aided the National Cancer Center in overcoming labor shortages by augmenting 24/7 hospital staff services. Use cases included food delivery, medication administration, surgical materials transport, infectious waste removal, and sanitization," said Kim. "With Samsung C&T, our units helped construct a new semiconductor plant. Leveraging AMR, Samsung C&T reduced workplace injuries caused by forklift accidents and manual transportation of heavy loads". TR seeks to bring similar results to U.S. manufacturers, hospitals, warehouses, and construction projects.
Businesses seeking to learn more should visit booth #2450 at AUTOMATE for live demonstrations.

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.
