THK List of Products and Services

"SIGNAS" is a transport robot that operates by recognizing signposts (markers) placed within the factory using its built-in camera. It eliminates the need for route tapes (magnetic tapes) required for AGV operation, teaching (map setup) necessary for AMR operation, and constant wireless communication, allowing for quick adaptation to sudden layout changes. It can navigate surfaces with grooves, steps, inclines, and unevenness, contributing to the efficiency and flexibility of unmanned transport. 【We solve the following problems】 ■ Teaching for AMR takes time and costs ■ Building a dedicated wireless communication environment for AMR is challenging ■ Layout changes become a bottleneck for the introduction of AGV/AMR and transport automation ■ Replacing route tapes during layout changes is cumbersome ■ As it is a rented building, we want to avoid sticking tape to the floor ■ We need to run on grating, asphalt, and checker plates but are struggling because we cannot apply route tape *For more details, please refer to the catalog. We also introduce examples of equipment collaboration and utilization. We are currently accepting requests for running tests and demonstrations. Please feel free to contact us.

Introducing the autonomous mobile robot "Oasis Series." This robot achieves high stopping accuracy thanks to its high-performance LiDAR and robust control algorithms. With industry-leading repeat positioning accuracy (±5mm), it supports automation of inter-process transport with the AMR alone. The load capacity ranges from 300kg to 1200kg. There is no need for installation preparation of the operating environment (markers, tapes, guides, etc.). Our group company, THK Intex, provides comprehensive startup services and can also manufacture peripheral devices. 【Features】 ■ Obstacle detection/avoidance ■ Real-time control ■ Task management ■ Automatic charging ■ Customization (upon consultation) ■ Fixed route operation *Please download the PDF catalog to see the main operational scenes and application uses. Feel free to consult us for detailed specifications.

"OASIS" is an autonomous mobile robot (AMR) equipped with two LiDAR sensors mounted at the front and back, along with a control algorithm, achieving a positioning accuracy of ±5mm. It has a high self-localization capability, allowing it to operate even when the match rate with map information decreases. Additionally, if it adjusts its position to pass by other AMRs, it can return to its accurate path and continue its operation. [Recommended for these concerns regarding unmanned transport vehicles, AGVs, and AMRs!] ◎ We want to automate not only the transport between processes but also the loading and unloading before and after travel. ◎ We want to reduce costs for coordinating the transport robot with the devices at the front and back. ◎ We have automated transport between processes, but errors frequently occur during the handover of goods. ◎ Mapping is required every time there is a change in the environment, leading to inefficiencies. ◎ We want to achieve automation while utilizing existing carts. *For more details, please refer to the materials available for download in the catalog.
