Mobile Dual Arm Manipulator for Flexible operation

Mobile Dual Arm Manipulator for Flexible operation
Summary

Driven by the need of highly reconfigurable production lines, this exploitable result focuses on the creation an Open Production Station where the key resource is a mobile robot platform with two robotic manipulators and a sensor suite that will enable the robot’s autonomous navigation and multiple operations execution. In particular, the developed mobile dual arm worker’s structure will be composed by: a) Two Universal Robot (UR) manipulators, a 2 DOF body support, b) omnidirectional wheels, c) PLC based safety control strategy, d) pan – tilt camera for navigation, e) POS / SLAM based navigation and f) safety stop / go. This robot system may be applicable in any manufacturing system that required multi variants production including also manual labour.
