Humanoid Robot for Small Spaces
July 1, 2016
"AMICO is positioned to be Comau's next step towards precise and effective robotics. It is a future in which machine-machine cooperation and man-machine cooperation evolves from a hypothesis to a real production opportunity that can be applied safely," said a company spokesperson.
The arms of AMICO feature two SCHUNK SDH2 grippers, a multi-articulated gripping system with three fingers and the ability to grab a range of objects. Two of the SCHUNK gripper fingers can change their orientation to adapt to a variety of applications. The gripper is also able to recognize each surface and release the necessary strength through a specific sensor. In addition to precision, this allows the robot to understand whether the gripping is optimal or should be adjusted.
"AMICO is a technical and communicative concept chosen by Comau to represent the robot's ability to work in small spaces with precision and flexibility," said the spokesperson. Based on Racer3 technology, it also demonstrates the possibility to mount Racer3 in any position. The mix of technology and design that characterizes Racer3 enables it to bend and reach in the surrounding space.
