RoboteQ - EASY DUAL MOTOR KINEMATICSIn AGV/Mobile Robot applications, Dual Channel drives are simpler, cheaper, and easier to integrate and maintain. Motors are coordinated within the drive, resulting in superior and safer drive characteristics compared to two single channel drives.
Drives include traditional RS232/485/USB communication ports compatible with major Fieldbus standards. Can be tightly coupled with other drives, computers, or PLCs in factory installations and robotics systems.
RoboteQ drives have the feature sets that make them well suited in a wide range of advanced motion control applications: precise speed, torque, and position control; exceptional power density, dual‑channel, battery operation support, regenerative braking, fieldbus connectivity, rugged construction, Functional Safety (STO), and advanced protection are some of the enabling technologies found in our RoboG4 drives
RoboteQ Transaxle and Heavy Duty Wheel Motor technology enables Nidec to provide a complete package from the road up.
Nidec offers a diverse line of AGV/AMR motors in a variety of speeds, torque ranges, feedback options, connector types and mounting preferences with customizable solutions that align with your unique requirements. Our motor controllers are high performance and loaded with numerous features and operating modes. If space is a premium, our integrated drive solutions provide a compact, streamlined profile for precise motion control in tight spaces. Our battery management/protection system is customizable, ultra-efficient, and delivers high current power using all Lithium Ion batteries. We’re your one-stop-shop for practically everything “bot.”
Building Automatic Mobile Robots, also known as AMRs, has gotten much easier thanks to Roboteq’s comprehensive solutions of Motion Controllers, Electric Motors, Guidance Sensors, Power Management and Software.
RoboteQ makes building an AMR so simple that we designed a demonstrator using all our components together with parts of selected partners. This AMR can serve as a simple ready-to-use Robot, or as the Chassis + Drive + Navigation foundation for a more sophisticated system. Its fast charging 1000Wh battery ensures several hours of operation between charges.
The AMR frame is made of high-grade aluminum, uniquely designed to bear heavy loads while still being as light weight as possible. The chassis can be easily customized to user specifications such as hooks and cargo platforms.

SICK Sensors - Safe AGV EasyReliable protection of AGVs and AGCs for productive logistic processes
Safe AGV Easy is a reliable and easy-to-integrate safety system for protecting automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and automated guided carts (AGCs). It combines a safety laser scanner with a safety controller and ensures standard-compliant as well as economical operation of the vehicles. Safe AGV Easy is a suitable solution for enabling short throughput times, optimized inventories and high flexibility in logistics, thus increasing productivity. Standard LIDAR
Posital FRABA - AGVs (autonomous guided vehicles) and AMRs (autonomous mobile robots) are becoming the norm in manufacturing production, assembly plants, and logistics warehousing facilities. These devices provide a fast and efficient method to modern-day production demands. POSITAL’s line of kit encoders can assist with the navigation systems of these products. With absolute position sensing, compact and robust designs, and accurate and responsive sensing, POSITAL kit encoders are perfect to integrate into existing systems or innovative designs.
- Absolute Position Sensing
- Battery and Gear-Free Multiturn Solution
- High Resolution, Dynamic Response
- Various Mechanical Designs
Encoder Products - AGVs (autonomous guided vehicles) and AMRs (autonomous mobile robots) require solutions that may not exist. Encoder Products will utilize its own engineering to meet customer requirements. A recent application required 2 encoders mounted on one shaft.
Redundant encoders are the simple, economical solution to an application where safety is paramount. With the use of redundant encoders, an application must rely on different technologies – even when using one safety controller – so if external environmental, mechanical, or electrical factors cause the failure of one encoder, the other encoder will continue to provide feedback.

Whereas safety encoders are large, expensive and difficult to work around, customized redundant solutions are more economical and mechanically designed to drop into your application. EPC provides customized redundant packages, offering the diversity of different technologies, components, and designs with two encoders to ensure that your application has the reliable motion feedback it needs to keep working.

ASO Safety - Bumpers and Edges
ASO Safety bumpers are a customizable 4-sided Safety switch. Covered with artificial leather, ASO bumpers can be ordered; in any size, in any shape, in any color, and customized with manufacturer’s LOGO or company name.
If a robot end-effector or AGV / AMR were to impact an object with as little as 6.74 lbf. the internal safety circuit would open, be detected in micro-seconds by a Safety Relay, then programming would STOP all motion.
ASO Edges can also be ordered in different sizes and can sense impacts of 10 to 15 lbf.
Weather resistance Edges are great for the bottom of a door, the side of a machine, or AGV where other technologies are far to expensive and just don’t make sense.
All ASO Safety products are the finest quality and supported by creative engineers who can assist you with your ideas.
