Mobile collaborative robot "OMR series" that makes automation easy and compact

Mobile collaborative robot "OMR series" won the Japan Machine Tool Builders' Association Award at the 54th Machine Design Award sponsored by Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun.

The OMR series is a mobile collaborative robot that makes automation easy and compact.
No programming is required, so even operators with no experience in operating robots can set up new workpieces. Up to thirty types of workpieces can be registered.
In addition, machines that require to be automated can be changed flexibly according to production schedules. Up to 10 machines can be registered to one OMR, and setup time is as short as 4.5 minutes.
A stocker that can handle a wide range of workpiece sizes is also used, reducing the stocker setup time when switching between workpieces. By replacing the top plate, different shapes and different quantities of workpieces can be handled.
