MiR equipped with an arm-type top module
Grips and tows the trolley
MiR's hook-type top module grabs the trolley with its arm and pulls it. It is useful for a wide range of towing tasks, such as transporting products and parts in manufacturing facilities and warehouses, and moving linen and food carts in hospitals.
Application features
Introducing the features of MiR equipped with an arm-type top module.
- 1
-
No need to purchase a special trolley
If the existing trolley meets the conditions, it can be used as is.
- 2
-
No need to standardize trolley size
ID tags are used to identify trolleys each time, making it possible to handle work sites where trolleys of different sizes coexist.

Reduce employee burden and improve productivity
Kashiyama Kogyo, a vacuum pump manufacturer, has introduced the autonomous mobile robot (AMR) "MiR Hook 1" to accommodate an increase in transport distances (up to 4km per day) resulting from the expansion of its factory.
By using existing carts with only minor modifications, implementation costs can be reduced.
MiR's flexibility in automatically avoiding obstacles also reduces manual work, allowing employees to focus on higher value-added tasks.
In the future, we plan to further automate things such as transporting parts from the parts warehouse to the manufacturing department.

Implementing MiR to improve safety and operational efficiency
Danish refrigeration and freezing equipment manufacturer Vestfrost Solutions has introduced five autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), including the MiR250 and MiR250 Hook, to help
We have automated 80% of the transportation within the factory, which has eliminated the need for three manned forklifts and automated the work that previously required employees to walk 1km per day.
This transformation has significantly improved the safety and comfort of the working environment, allowing employees to focus on more value-added tasks.
