Robotino® XT
Mobile learning system with Handling Assistant
The Robotino® XT combines the mobile Robotino® learning system by Festo Didactic with a portable version of the Bionic Handling Assistant.
Just like its successor, the Robotino® XXT, it acts as a research platform for developing new methods and tools for service robots and the production assistants of the future.
Free moving and precisely controllable
Not only can the system manoeuvre in the tightest space; with a total of twelve degrees of freedom, the robot can be flexibly controlled and the pliable gripper arm precisely aligned. This is made possible by the mobile energy supply and an integrated piezo valve terminal on board: it already has its own pressure regulator on board and doses the compressed air exactly in the air chambers in the pneumatic arm.
A proven learning system
Thanks to its modular nature, Robotino® has proven is worth as a learning system of Festo Didactic. All its technical components are not only immediately comprehensible; their integrated system behaviour can also be learned.
Yielding gripper arm: no danger from direct contact
The flexibility of the gripper arm allows direct human-machine contact. In the event of a collision with the human operator, the system immediately yields, but with no modification to its desired overall dynamic behaviour. The assistant does not constitute a hazard even if the electronics or the control system should fail, since its structurally inherent yielding capability then comes to the fore.
