    KUKA omniMove

    Uploaded on May 4, 2010

    The omniMove® wheel consists of eight specially shaped, non-driven rollers, which are mounted between two identical stable rims. The unique advantage of this is that platforms with omniMove® wheels can be moved in any direction from a standing start. The wheels do not have a steering mechanism, as changes in direction are determined by the direction of rotation of the wheels relative to one another. The resulting maneuverability of the platform is comparable to the omnidirectional freedom of motion of a hovercraft.

    KUKA mobile platforms - unique drive concept

    Published on May 24, 2016

    Mobile heavy-duty platforms, transport systems for internal logistics or flexible production assistants: anyone looking for mobile robots or platforms will find what they need at KUKA.

    This video highlights how the KUKA mobile platforms drive around with precision using a special drive concept for omnidirectional movement with easy maintenance.

    The KUKA “mobility” portfolio offers a wide range of mobile systems with numerous variants for all conceivable dimensions. The Mecanum wheel system ensures maximum freedom of motion and is predestined for transporting even heavy loads with the utmost precision. The mobile platforms and transport systems from KUKA are available both with and without KUKA robots and for different sizes and payloads. In this way, they can be customized to meet many different customer requirements.

    In the aerospace and automotive industries and in many other branches of industry: it has never been simpler to integrate autonomous robots and mobile platforms quickly, precisely and reliably into cells and systems.

    The KUKA “mobility” portfolio also offers with omnidirectional mobile systems for internal logistics. When it comes to direct cooperation between humans and machines or between humans and mobile platforms, rigid boundaries are being dispensed with – both parties work hand in hand, paving the way for the fourth industrial revolution: “Industry 4.0”.

    KMP 1500 - Intelligent & Autonomous Mobile Platform

    Published on Sep 13, 2017

    Introducing the KUKA KMP 1500, and autonomous and powerful mobile platform - capable of navigating with Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) using laser scanners.

    The KMP 1500 is highly flexible, with precise maneuverability and positioning using the omni-directional mecanum wheels and an accurate lifting mechanism.

    The KUKA KMP 1500 is our answer to the increasing demand of production departments for shorter response times and greater flexibility in their manufacturing concepts. Predefined routes and rigid processes are a thing of the past in the factory of the future. This is why KUKA develops intelligent, autonomous vehicles that supply materials to robots and machines with perfect timing. The KMP 1500 makes flexible production possible to an extent that has been unimaginable before.

    The KMP 1500 is an autonomously controlled platform that integrates seamlessly into the production process. The vehicle is also excellently suited to the matrix body shop. The KMP 1500 independently and autonomously handles the transport of the products through all process steps.

    This production concept from KUKA enables you to optimize your logistics management. The KMP 1500 provides cost-effective support for your warehouse organization or between manufacturing processes – and is used only as needed.
