Explorer

The Explorer range of snake-arm robots is designed to operate as a standalone unit or with an OC Robotics introduction axis. Alternatively it can be integrated with a standard industrial robot, a crane or a mobile vehicle. We would be pleased to send you a copy of the Explorer catalogue. It is also available for download. The catalogue provides details of the range of options available and explains some of the issues that you will need to consider to optimise your solution.

Using industrial robots as an example, the Explorer range can be considered as a tool on the end of the industrial robot or as a flexible fore-arm for the robot. Our proprietary software controls both the industrial robot and the snake-arm to coordinate their motion.

In the area of industrial robots we have a strong relationship with Kuka but can work with other preferred robot suppliers. We see snake-arms being used as a plug-and-play addition to any automated production line.

Work in the aerospace sector has produced the first fully integrated demonstration system. The Explorer range builds on this success and provides different length and diameter snake-arms for a wide range of industrial robots.
