OverviewOMRON's line-up of collaborative robots (TM Series) provides multiple models to match reach and payload requirements across applications, including mobile-robot-compatible (DC) versions.
Key CapabilitiesDesigned to meet safety regulations ISO 10218-1 (including TS 15066) and ISO 13849-1.
Key Industries & Applications- Assembly: Improve throughput and consistency of repetitive or complex assembly tasks including part joining, insertion, tool changing, and working alongside people.
- Mobile Manipulation: Mounting an OMRON TM cobot onto an OMRON LD mobile robot to automate transportation of goods and complicated picking operations.
- Palletizing: Space-saving cobots streamline end-of-line case stacking onto a pallet; Operator Platform allows building palletizing software and includes a built-in palletizing wizard.
- Packaging / Pick and Place with Inspection: Built-in vision and lighting enable inspection, sorting and picking from a conveyor before case packing; quick adaptation to new products or seasonal models.
- Machine Tending: Tending CNC machines, injection molding machines, stamping and punch pressers, grinding and cutting machines to relieve workers from repetitive and dangerous work.
- Screwdriving: Adds precision and consistency to screwdriving and parts fastening applications; ready-to-use solution available with screwdriving kit and pneumatic control box.
- Dispensing: Flexible automation for gluing, sealing, painting and other dispensing tasks; hand guide records complex paths for quick deployment.
Easy to UseGraphical programming, hand guiding, and intelligent vision make OMRON TM cobots easy and intuitive; customers can set up simple applications in minutes.
Hand GuideHand guide mode allows users to set points and assign tasks by guiding the robot arm; buttons built into the cobot arm record positions automatically in the software.
ISO/TS 15066 Oriented Safety SettingsPatented "body region safety settings" with preset safety parameter values based on TS 15066 and robot kinematics, removing the need for complicated safety calculations to set up a safe application.
Intelligent VisionBuilt-in vision system enables quick setup of pick-and-place tasks using hand guiding and landmark positioning.
LandmarkA physical object recognized by the robot's built-in camera that acts as a beacon to help the robot navigate and locate objects within the workspace; useful for high-mix, low-volume production and quick redeployment without recalibration.
Graphical ProgrammingFlow-based software (TMflow) and Operator Platform enable full workflow creation with click-and-drag methods and intuitive drag-and-drop visual elements, reducing need for complex coding.
Designed for Flexible ManufacturingTM Collaborative Robots are designed for easy redeployment to different tasks and applications to support flexible production.
