PLiBOT Gen.2 solves
on-site challenges in a variety of fields,
including manufacturing, logistics, and construction.
-
You want to automate and unmann our factories, but we have a limited budget and don't know where to start.
Accommodates gradual expansion while utilizing current facilities
PLiBOT Gen.2's ability to link different control standards makes it possible to utilize existing robots and automated machinery assets while introducing new robots and automated equipment in order of priority, allowing for gradual development.
Another benefit is its high future scalability, allowing for flexible adoption of new models as they emerge. For customers who are unsure where to start with automation and unmanned operations, we can propose ideal solutions starting from the implementation planning level.
-
You want to combine and operate robots that are best suited to our company, regardless of manufacturer.
You can freely choose the robots and equipment that best suit your purpose and application.
You can freely choose and directly purchase robots and equipment with different control standards, regardless of manufacturer, whether domestic or international. We also have a centralized consultation desk for when problems with robots or equipment occur, reducing the hassle of responding to inquiries.
Robots can be connected to each other by integrating their respective MAPs. Not only can you combine and use models that are best suited to your company, but you can also manufacture and introduce custom-made autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) according to your needs.
-
You would like to introduce AMR (autonomous mobile robots) to the floor where people work.
Building a world-class safe collaborative environment between humans and robots
The autonomous mobile robots (AMR) that can be selected when introducing new products are primarily those that comply with the international safety standard ISO 3691-4 (JIS D6802:2022). Safety laser scanners prevent collisions with people, and safety encoders and safe motion controllers monitor speed, direction of rotation, and other factors. What's more, a check system can be established by connecting remote monitoring devices, allowing robots to be incorporated into existing lines while taking multifaceted safety measures.
-
You want to centralize the control of robots and industrial equipment, and also link it with inventory management systems.
Possible to link data with existing systems
By using APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) that link with higher-level systems, it is possible to connect and link data with existing production management systems (PMS), enterprise resource planning (ERP), customer relationship management (CRM), etc. Data can be provided to systems currently in use within the company, which can lead to improved efficiency across departments.
-
It is difficult to learn how to operate the robots, and the tasks are highly dependent on the individual.
Anyone can easily operate and control multiple robots in a centralized manner.
The operation screen, accessible from a PC or tablet, is designed to be easy for anyone to use. It is also customizable to suit the modules being used. Due to differences in manufacturers and control standards, each robot was often operated by a person familiar with its operation. However, this allows for centralized operation and control, which reduces manpower and labor.
The world that PLiBOT Gen.2 will realize
