Lab Automation Autonomous Mobile Robot


DESCRIPTION
Lab Automation Autonomous Mobile Robot is an Industrial-Robot from Thermo Fisher Scientific. It is built for Material-Handling, Pick-and-place, Research. Key figures: 90 kg, 480 min runtime, 0.3 kg payload, 350 mm reach, 4 degrees of freedom.
The Thermo Scientific Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) brings mobility to lab automation: it carries labware such as microplates, tip racks and consumables between benches, rooms and floors on its own, for distributed workflows where manual hand-offs slow throughput or add variability. It pairs a mobile base with a Spinnaker 3 microplate arm and on-board plate storage, and Thermo Fisher pitches it at contract research organisations and pharma and biopharma companies for 24/7 unattended operation. It navigates with knowledge of workflows, samples and floors for sample protection and traceability, coordinates task timing through Momentum software, and keeps working through network interruptions. On-board storage holds up to 40 SBS-format plates in portrait or landscape (minimum 40 mm nest pitch), with a transparent barrier for inspection, an external window for controlled sample exchange and bulk loading from the back. Its arm reaches 350 mm from the robot's edge across a working height of 375 to 1,515 mm and positions to +/-0.25 mm and +/-0.2 degrees. The preliminary spec sheet lists an overall height of 1,805 mm on a 700 mm diameter footprint, a weight of about 90 kg, about eight hours of run time per roughly four-hour full charge, a battery life of about 2,000 cycles, operation at 15 to 40 C, Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac) and compliance with EN ISO 12100, EN ISO 13849-1, EN 60204-1, EN 1525 and ANSI B56.5.
