Humanoid Robot Features User-Friendly Control Interface
Rollomatic offers the Kawada humanoid industrial robot, compatible with conventional industrial robots.
Rollomatic Inc., a manufacturer in the field of cutting tool production, showcases its Kawada humanoid, industrial robot. The design of this handling system is intended to meet increasing demands in the areas of IIoT and the smart factory.
The Kawada humanoid robot autonomously performs tasks such as cassette loading, pre‐grinding or post‐grinding tool inspection, laser marking, placing finished products into packaging tubes and affixing labels to the tubes.
This is a new type of industrial robot able to perform tasks in locations that are difficult for traditional robots to access because of its frame and size. It can be installed with ease without the need to redesign production lines.
This efficient, humanoid robot was designed to be seamlessly placed where a person usually operates and use its head and two arms, equipped with cameras, to take over any tedious, dangerous or repetitive tasks, allowing workers to focus on areas that require creativity and generate greater added value.
Users can control and teach Nextage what to do with a visual and user‐friendly interface. Nextage was also designed to be compatible with conventional industrial robots or other specialized equipment, enabling the possibility for a team framework.
A stand‐alone cassette loading station is available utilizing the Kawada humanoid robot. This station loads cutting tool blanks into Rollomatic cassettes from two different types of feeders — a V‐type feeder magazine and a vibratory bowl feeder.
