Businesses deploying the OMRON LD-250 autonomous mobile robot (AMR) now have a powerful new option to dramatically increase payload without having to invest in a larger, more expensive AMR solution – a cart solution for the OMRON LD-250. The ROEQ TMC500 top module and Cart500, not only doubles the AMR payload, it also provides a standardized, safe, and flexible solution for internal logistics tasks.
NEW PARTNERSHIP BRINGS NEW OPPORTUNITIES
“This exciting new relationship with ROEQ gives our customers access to fast and cost-effective options for their toughest mobile automation initiatives,” says Kyle Hable, Group Product Manager, OMRON Robotics and Safety Technologies, INC. “OMRON customers around the world depend on our mobile robots for their flexibility, reliable performance, and best-in-class fleet management. ROEQ’s global presence is a perfect match to aid customers with successful autonomous intralogistics solutions.” Michael Ejstrup Hansen, Managing Director at ROEQ, emphasizes how the Cart solution for the OMRON LD-250 and new OMRON partnership is part of a ROEQ strategy to expand its mobile robotic equipment (MRE) solutions to more AMR brands:
“As a leading quality global brand of AMRs, OMRON is a natural partner for us,” he says. “We developed the cart solution for OMRON LD-250 due to its flexible use and the clear benefits that it adds in both automotive manufacturing, digital and semiconductor industries, food and consumables, warehouse and logistics, and medical verticals.”
VERSATILE, SAFE and RELIABLE CART SOLUTION FOR OMRON AMR
The ROEQ TMC500 cart solution for the OMRON LD-250 consists of a top module and the ROEQ Cart500. The solution is versatile, with free-space pick up ( no docking marker needed) and mounting holes on the Cart500 for attaching crates and shelves on top of the cart. The robot can dock to the cart from both ends – for greater logistics efficiency – and has easy access to the emergency stop button for cargo up to 120 cm (47.2”) such as Euro and US pallets.
ROEQ SOFTWARE FOR SAFETY COMPLIANCE AND EASIER INTEGRATION
The solution comes with ROEQ software for easy and consistent setup of the system, enabling a seamless integration between the ROEQ TMC500 and the OMRON LD-250. The software includes ROEQ Assist and ROEQ safety configuration and the solution works with the OMRON operating panel.
POWERFUL & COST EFFECTIVE CART SOLUTION FOR AMR
“With this new cart solution for OMRON and close partnership, we look forward to providing OMRON customers with a powerful and cost-effective solution,” says Michael E. Hansen, emphasizing how the ROEQ MRE enables compact AMRs to transport heavier load while maintaining maneuverability in narrow spaces.
