MiR Launches Two Powerful Autonomous Mobile Robots to Optimize Logistics
Mobile Industrial Robots A/S (MiR) has launched its most powerful robots for transporting pallets and other heavy items around manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and logistics centers.
Posted: September 12, 2021
Both autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are designed to safely and efficiently perform material handling tasks in challenging industrial environments.
“Customers testing AMRs within their facilities have learned that they want to transport heavier loads and that successfully investing in large fleets for core production demands ever greater levels of reliability, safety, and quality,” said Søren E. Nielsen, president, MiR (Odense, Denmark). ”Our new industrial and robust robots meet these requirements.”
The MiR600 and MiR1350 are Ingress Protection52-rated (IP52-rated) AMRs, which means their components are protected and can tolerate dust and water drops.
“With AMRs increasingly integrated into core productions, downtime is not an option,” Nielsen said. “Our new AMRs are industry grade and constructed for a long lifetime with easy serviceability thanks to components and cables that are industrial and easy to access.”
The MiR600 and MiR1350 are well suited for autonomously transporting heavy loads of materials and goods in:
- loading bays
- production and assembly areas
- warehouses
- material delivery areas
Like MiR’s other AMRs, the new robots navigate smoothly and safely among people and other transport equipment in dynamic surroundings. Sensors, 3D cameras, and the latest laser scanning technology ensure 360-degree vision for precise and safe navigation and operations. The new AMRs are designed to comply with the industry’s latest safety standards, including ISO 3691-4 and ANSI/RIA R15.08-1-2020.
MiR’s AMRs are highly flexible and can be deployed with different top modules for customized applications. To ease implementation, MiR offers a number of lift top modules for the MiR600 and MiR1350. These top modules enable the AMRs to pick up and drop off pallets and carts for easy integration and scalability throughout the value chain.
