About

About HKM1800

HKM1800 is Cognibotics’ hybrid-kinematics material-handling robot for high-speed pick-and-place cells. Its 1.8-metre reach covers six Euro pallets or about 10 square metres, with close to one metre of vertical stroke and unlimited tool rotation. The robot is rated for more than 2,000 picks per hour and a 1.6-second motion cycle over a 2,000-millimetre path.

The mechanism weighs less than 125 kilograms and carries 2 kilograms nominally or up to 7.5 kilograms at reduced performance. Active motion stabilization is designed to suppress vibration while retaining a large work envelope. Flexible mounting, automatic tool changing and open programming interfaces support integration into warehouse cells. Cognibotics’ Juliet & Romeo software coordinates robot motion, vision and tooling for complete item-handling workflows.
