3 Voith Robotics A Voith and Franka Emika Company Even today, robotics remains a technology accessible only to few. In production processes just limited tasks can be automated. The reasons for this are the high costs and the difficult programming. So how can this complex technology be made accessible to the general population and production? Our robot is the solution - a robot which can be used by anybody and which supports humans in carrying out repetitive or even dangerous tasks. Panda is the first system of an entirely new generation of tools, which are developed with the following main objectives: first as a research robot, then as a colleague in a factory and finally as an assistant in daily life. The system can be operated via apps like a smartphone and be taught new tasks within a few minutes, without requiring any programming skills. At the same time the system is sensitive to such an extent, that it is possible for the first time to automate repetitive and often monotonous tasks like finely controlled fitting, testing, inspection and assembly. Voith Robotics is a joint venture of the technology company Voith and the robotics company Franka Emika. The company, with headquarters in Munich, Germany, is to become a global system supplier for robot-assisted automation in the digital age. Voith Robotics will offer process solutions including lightweight robots made by Franka Emika, along with software solutions, apps, services and process consulting, to customers in various industries and markets throughout the world. A global service network will be set-up to provide fast and flexible support close to our customers. In 2017, the team of Franka Emika received the German Award for Innovation in Science and Technology from President Frank-Walter Steinmeier for developing Panda, the first highly sensitive lightweight robot. The system was developed based on the globally leading German robot technology, and is now produced in series in Bavaria, Germany. Designed, developed and made in Germany. 3

6 Industries seek robotic solutions Unprecedented areas of application and new markets for intelligent robot assistants are emerging. However, nowadays all industries still face the restrictions of the current state-of-the-art robotic technology in manufacturing and assembly: 6 Integration, programming and tooling is too expensive and extremely time consuming. Solutions are custommade and lack reusability and adaptability. Consequently, investment is project specific and cannot be depreciated over several projects. Complicated programming procedures limit accessibility as industries depend on highly skilled experts with increasingly short product life cycles. The current robotic solution costs cannot compete with labor costs at production sites. Deployment by existing staff at the production facility is not possible. Lack of sensitivity severely limits the robot s product assembly capabilities.

8 Panda. The robot for everyone sensitive, interconnected, adaptive and cost-efficient Making Panda revolutionary: Human-like capabilities High resolution sensitivity in all seven joints for robust assembly High perfomance operation Complete workspace covering kinematics and excellent precision Smartphone-like programming within minutes Using modular and reusable powerful robot apps Cloud connection for global access Runs in web-browser 8 Competitively low hardware, software and integration cost Useable and accessible for everybody Flexible shopfloor integration in no time Effortless multi-robot-deployment

9 Technical data Arm: The arm is inspired by the agility of the human arm. It is a sensitive and extraordinarily versatile power tool. The torque sensors in all seven axes enable Panda to skillfully and delicately manipulate objects. Degrees of freedom Payload Sensitivity Maximum reach Cartesian velocity limits Repeatability 7 DOF 3 kg joint torque sensors in all 7 axes 855 mm up to 2 m/s end effector speed +/- 0.1 mm (ISO 9283), even improves by Mounting flange DIN ISO A50 upright Installation position 18 kg Weight IP30 Protection rating Ambient temperature Air humidity C (typical) 20 % to 80 % non-condensing using sensitivity features Interfaces Ethernet (TCP/IP) Control: The slim 19 control unit can be mounted in server racks or placed anywhere else. It connects Panda to the cloud or to your local shopfloor network. Interfaces Controller size (19 ) Supply voltage Mains frequency Ethernet (TCP/IP) for Internet/ network-connection 355 x 483 x 89 mm (D x W x H) 100 VAC VAC Hz Power consumption max. 600 W; average: ~ 300 W Active power factor correction (PFC) yes Weight Protection rating Ambient temperature ~ 7 kg IP C (typical) Pilot: Pilot is the direct user interface on the arm. It provides quick-buttons to customize the apps and to execute their features in desk. Hand: The hand can grasp firmly and quickly for high performance and flexible pick and place. The fingers can be exchanged to optimally grasp a wide variety of objects. Parallel gripper with exchangeable fingers Grasping force force up to 70N Travel (travel speed) 80 mm (30 mm/s) Desk: A task can be set up in desk by arranging different apps, which are then parametrized directly in the work area. Apps: Apps are modular robot programs and always represent a partial step of a Task. Each app contains a context menu in which the user is lead through the process parameters interactively. World: The online platform Franka World is the center of the ecosystem, where the community will be able to exchange ideas and developers will get assigned to customers allowing them to introduce new solutions and applications. 9

14 Panda is unique Torque controlled with a sense of touch Seven degrees of freedom. Agile and sensitive like a human arm. Learning capability Today s artificial intelligence(s) and machine learners are able to analyze large data volumes, to recognize patterns and to draw conclusions. However, physical interaction with the real world is still a challenge. Existing robotic systems are massive mechanical positioning machines that simply cannot feel, because they are not made for interaction with the world. Panda is born with this ability and through learning it expands its skill set. 14
