First in the Kyushu area! Kawada Robotics' humanoid collaborative robot 'NEXTAGE' will be on limited-time display at the Kyushu Robot Center in Saga Prefecture.

The reason that company adopted NEXTAGE! ～～A handbook that engineers tackling production automation missions should read～

The introduction of the humanoid dual-arm robot "NEXTAGE" began in the assembly processes of automotive parts and electronic/electrical machinery, but in recent years it has expanded to include packaging of daily necessities and cosmetics, as well as testing processes for reagents. Currently, it has been adopted by over 100 companies in Japan. As such, "NEXTAGE" has been implemented by companies in various industries, but there is a common point among many of these companies, regardless of their industry. That is, they planned to "automate multiple tasks" and "replace human labor" through the introduction of NEXTAGE.

Achieving autonomous operation of an all-in-one dual-arm robot. Compact and compatible with aisles 80 cm wide.

"NEXTAGE Mobile" is a mobile robot that enables autonomous movement of the humanoid robot NEXTAGE. While retaining the features of NEXTAGE, it allows for tasks that involve moving between multiple locations and assisting with processes like water strider operations, further expanding its areas of application. When a person approaches within a certain distance, it slows down and stops, and automatically resumes when the person moves away, thereby reducing the risk of accidents and injuries due to collisions. [Features] - Integration of the all-in-one robot NEXTAGE, equipped with dual arms and cameras, with an AGV - Adoption of a position identification method using a head-mounted camera, which is less affected by environmental factors - Ability to set movement and operations using the same software as NEXTAGE - Compact design that allows entry into narrow paths (compatible with a passage width of 80 cm) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document.

A highly versatile robot that works while recognizing the surrounding environment and the task at hand!

"NEXTAGE" was developed under the concept of "humanoid robots that work alongside people," aimed at ensuring safety in manufacturing environments and improving productivity. It possesses safety features equivalent to collaborative robots and utilizes its high versatility to recognize surrounding environments and tasks, enabling automation of labor-intensive processes such as assembly, inspection, and packaging across a wide range of industries, including electrical and electronic components. It frees operators from simple repetitive tasks, allowing them to focus on process management and improvement activities. 【Features】 ■ Since its launch, it has been adopted by leading companies in various industries. ■ In 2018, it underwent a model change that improved payload and speed. ■ NEXTAGE solves processes that were difficult to automate with dedicated machines or single-arm robots. ■ It uses a vision system in the head and two arms to perform tasks currently done by hand with minimal environmental changes, among other capabilities. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

With the software version upgrade, NEXTAGE has newly added two features!

In October 2020, we released version 3.9 of the NEXTAGE dedicated software "NxProduction"! With this update, we are introducing two new features: "Conveyor Tracking" and "Integration with External Devices." 【New Feature 1】 Conveyor Tracking It is now possible to pick up workpieces flowing on a belt conveyor using image processing, without stopping the conveyor. 【New Feature 2】 Integration with External Devices It is now possible to operate and write to some functions of NxProduction from external devices. Previously, the NEXTAGE display and the touch panel for controlling peripheral devices had to be operated separately... However, from now on, it will be possible to operate everything with a single touch panel! NEXTAGE will continue to evolve. We hope that NEXTAGE can be of assistance in your factory as well. If you have any questions or inquiries about automation, please feel free to contact us!

It seems that handling a dual-arm robot is difficult. What kind of tasks can "dual arms" perform? We will hold an experience event where you can touch the actual machine to resolve such questions!

"NEXTAGE" was developed under the concept of "humanoid robots working alongside people" with the aim of ensuring safety in manufacturing environments and improving productivity. Utilizing its high versatility to recognize surrounding environments and target tasks, it has achieved automation of labor-intensive tasks such as assembly, inspection, and packaging across a wide range of industries, including electrical and electronic components and various other sectors. We are pleased to announce a "NEXTAGE" teaching experience event for customers considering the introduction of robots! Using our uniquely developed teaching software "NxProduction," participants will have the opportunity to interact with "NEXTAGE" and experience its operability and functionality firsthand. If you have any questions, don't worry at all. Our staff will be there to assist you. *Of course, we also welcome inquiries beyond teaching! Additionally, we have prepared a program that allows you to feel closer to robots even during the COVID-19 pandemic, so if traveling is difficult for you, please feel free to contact us.

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I'm worried about the possibility of colliding with pedestrians when exiting the parking lot..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, those facing sidewalks or roadways are particularly prone to dangerous incidents such as collisions with pedestrians or between vehicles. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Vehicle Exit Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures at various sites and alerts the surroundings with LED lights and buzzers. The system consists of a simple configuration of "Sensor" + "Controller" + "Switching Power Supply (24V)" + "LED Rotating Light." *When using the exit warning system, we kindly ask customers to arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breaker, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. [Contents Included] ○ Vehicle Exit Warning System Configuration ○ Comparison Table of Exit Warning Sensors ○ Four Modes ○ Wide Range of Applications ○ Customer Feedback ○ Appearance Diagram / Specifications ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
