Sensor-Equipped AMRs for Conveyor Transfer

New GuardCom sensor technology from ROEQ allows for instant communication between the company’s top-roller conveyors, located on top of mobile robots, with stationery robots, without the use of Wi-Fi.

In a press virtual conference on Sept. 29, ROEQ launched its GuardCom seamless communication solution that enables Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) from Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR) equipped with ROEQ’s top rollers—or, conveyors on top of robots—to communicate directly with a stationary conveyor station to initiate the transfer of goods between mobile robots and conveyors. The solution consists of two products: GuardCom, installed on the stationary conveyor station, and GuardCom Connect, installed on the autonomous mobile robot.  

Multiple GuardCom Connects can work with the same GuardCom and vice versa. GuardCom is compatible with all stationary conveyor stations, replacing third-party wireless devices. 

Once the mobile robot has arrived at the conveyor, GuardCom signals to the stationary conveyor station that the robot is in place and ready to receive or deliver the packages. The same signal is simultaneously sent to the robot letting it know that the stationary conveyor is ready. Once the transfer task is completed, both units receive a signal that it is safe for the robot to leave.
