Made-to-order production with an advanced fleet of mobile robots at VOLA

VOLA, a Danish manufacturer of luxury sanitary and kitchen fittings, has opened a new factory that incorporates a fleet of nine LD mobile robots from Omron. The new robot fleet works side-by-side with people, and is controlled by an advanced fleet management system. These have replaced roller conveyors, leading to a more flexible production and logistics set-up that matches the company’s single-piece production process, in which everything is produced to order.

Normagrup automates material transport with autonomous mobile robots

Founded in 1971, Normagrup is a world leader in technology dedicated to the production of interior lighting. Following the company’s original spirit and desire to create high-quality, technological products, they also apply this spirit in continuously improving their production processes. When Normagrup decided to automate material transport between production areas, they opted for a fleet of autonomous mobile robots with automatic loading and unloading stations. The project was carried out with Inser Robótica S.A. #mobilerobots #robotics #AMRs #intralogistics

Mobile robots speed production at smart factory in Norway

Showcasing flexible production in real life, a new smart factory in Norway uses a variety of robots in a system developed and implemented by system integrator Intek Engineering. A dozen industrial robots, each in individual workstations or cells, perform different steps in the manufacturing process. Here is a demonstration from Intek Engineering on how the LD mobile robots from Omron can operate.

ŠKODA AUTO uses Omron's fully autonomous LD mobile robot at Vrchlabí plant

The autonomous robot contributes to the continuous improvement of work safety in Vrchlabí and helps to minimise work risks. It recognises people crossing its path as well as other vehicles and stationary obstacles.

Customization and flexibility with high-speed manufacturing line and mobile robots at TePe

The oral hygiene manufacturer TePe has installed a new manufacturing line to replace its manual handling and quality inspection at their factory in Malmö, Sweden. A high-speed line from Omron comprising of industrial robots, mobile robots and vision systems now enables TePe to increase the throughput by 9 times and customise packaging for clients all over the world within seconds.

Mobile Robots - Dynamic Obstacle Tracking

Avoid collisions and employ safer passage in the warehouse. Allows for smoother motion around pedestrian traffic, forklifts, or any other moving vehicles. The tracking algorithm projects the path of moving objects in the same space as the robot to avoid collisions and traffic jams. If a person is walking in the path perpendicular to the robot, rather than trying to cross in front of the person’s path, a robot with Dynamic Obstacle Tracking will slow down and move behind the person.

OMRON's Integration Toolkit for the Fleet Manager

The Integration Toolkit is OMRON’s interface application that enables integration between the Fleet Manager and the end user’s client application, manufacturing execution system (MES), or warehouse management system (WMS). This integration layer facilitates autonomous control for a fleet of AMRs using standard communication methods including REST, SQL, and AMQP. The Integration Toolkit facilitates queuing and monitoring of all AMR job types such as pickup, drop-off, and multi-segment. For more information on OMRON's Fleet Simulator visit our website:
