Olis Robotics error-recovery system might be accessible with all Kawasaki robotic fashions beginning in Q2. Supply: Enterprise Wire
Olis Robotics and Kawasaki Robotics Inc. stated yesterday that they’ll collectively provide robots and controls to allow prospects to restart manufacturing quicker, scale back troubleshooting and downtime prices by as much as 90%, and acquire entry to knowledgeable help extra shortly.
“We’re seeing a rising demand for distant robotic monitoring and restoration capabilities,” acknowledged Paul Marcovecchio, director of the Common Industries enterprise unit at Kawasaki Robotics, in a launch. “Including Olis to our industrial robots is a sport changer for the market.”
“Our new partnership helps the trade gamut, from smaller first-time finish customers and their integrator companions as much as extra complicated AI-driven functions in bigger vegetation,” he stated. “All stakeholders can now simply and cost-effectively monitor, entry and recuperate their robotic cells remotely.”
Marcovecchio added that Olis Robotics has taken the time to know the variation boundaries. “In consequence, they created a strong software that additionally addresses end-user considerations akin to cybersecurity or the necessity to retrofit machines,” he stated.

Olis Robotics affords distant monitoring and management
Olis Robotics claimed that it’s a chief in distant error restoration for industrial robots. The Seattle-based firm stated that by offering one of the best remote-control consumer expertise, it could “catalyze automation adoption.”
Based in 2013 as a spinout from the College of Washington’s Utilized Physics Lab, Olis stated it has constructed on over a decade of telerobotics analysis and growth performed with the U.S. Navy and NASA. When robots fail, the firm claimed that its flagship Olis system delivers the info wanted for distant monitoring, management, and troubleshooting.
The firm additionally stated its customers can join on to their robots by way of an on-premise system through a safe connection, avoiding the dangers and complexities related to cloud-based techniques. To make sure bodily security, Olis is designed to all the time obey the robotic controller’s security restrictions.
Kawasaki and companions to demo palletizing at MODEX
Wixom, Mich.-based Kawasaki Robotics (USA) Inc. stated it has integrated greater than 50 years of expertise with industrial automation for a variety of functions and markets. The firm stated it gives a set of ordinary options on all of its robotic fashions.
At Sales space C5475 at MODEX 2024 in Atlanta from March 11 to 14, Kawasaki and Olis Robotics plan to showcase their partnership with CRG Automation, a Louisville, Ky.-based integrator. They are going to show a “state-of-the-art” robotic nook board system, built-in with a combined palletizing and depalletizing cell.
The cell will function a Kawasaki RS007L robotic inserting nook boards on pallets being wrapped to make sure total load stability. The system can deal with a number of SKUs of unstructured merchandise.
It will likely be geared up with Olis Robotics distant error-recovery software program, so attendees can see the way it alerts customers when the robotic unexpectedly stops or when it fails to choose or place an element. After such a system failure, the attendees can use Olis to run a tool-inspection routine and carry out distant error restoration, permitting the robotic to renew its cycle and get again to work.
Fredrik Ryden, CEO of Olis Robotics, famous that Kawasaki robots are constructed to final for many years, giving finish customers most management of a extremely customizable product. “Kawasaki’s dedication to a world-class shopping for expertise and fast ROI [return on investment] in a variety of functions is an ideal match for Olis,” he stated.
Ryden asserted that Kawasaki’s in depth integrator community is one other key issue within the new partnership, as Olis gives integrators time-saving bandwidth by way of the distant help capabilities, enabling them to develop as much as 25% quicker.
“We’re extremely excited to begin working with Kawasaki integrators to deploy and retrofit Olis models with Kawasaki robotic arms,” he added. “It’s a win-win for each the integrator and their prospects.”
The Olis distant monitoring and error restoration system might be accessible for any Kawasaki robotic mannequin beginning the second quarter of 2024.
