The video is awesome.
KUKA Titan Robot Arm on OmniMove (holonomic) Mobile Base
KUKA has developed an impressive array of omnidirectional robot platforms: OmniMove, OmniRob, and youBot. A new video on the youBot Store shows how an OmniMove holonomic base (containing eight mecanum wheels) can be transformed into a seriously heavy-lifting mobile manipulator through the addition of a huge Titan robot arm, which has been called the “world’s strongest robot arm” and is capable of lifting 1000 kg. The video (embedded below) shows this latest platform towering over the smaller youBot platform. I wonder if this new platform would qualify for BattleBots…? It would make for a fun exposition match!
