Nipper - Robot AGV Logistics
The Nipper is a compact automated vehicle save to use in a manned space. The Nipper is a complete independently operating AGV with a WI-FI based communication system. The Nipper only needs a loading time of just 30 minutes to be able to drive 4-5 hours continuously. The Nipper has a speed of 1 meter per second and can easily lift 1,000 kg.
De Nipper used natural structures in the environment as a reference for localization. This means it does not need any infrastructure, such as inductive wires, magnets or reflectors, to navigate.
De Nipper used natural structures in the environment as a reference for localization. This means it does not need any infrastructure, such as inductive wires, magnets or reflectors, to navigate.
The Nipper is a compact automated guided vehicle for unmanned internal pallet transport. It can easily lift pallets up to 1000 kg and navigate through tight spaces, making the Nipper a versatile and intelligent pallet truck. Another advantage is that after training you can program the Nipper without our help. You know how to use the intelligent software to easily adjust the routes of the Nipper, add multiple Nippers to the program and change existing commands.
Our Nipper meets the strictest safety requirements. High-quality safety components, such as a 360° scanner and Blue Spot, have been installed to ensure the Nipper can navigate safely through manned spaces. An excellent vehicle for use in a production or warehouse environment. |
By using our Nippers in the workplace, you save a lot on manpower and insurance and increase productivity.
Optional The Nipper can be equipped with an object scanner to prevent damage from objects undetected in the security scanner field. |

Object scanning
The object scanning solution consists of three (3) Sick TIM320 scanners, those are installed on the Nipper. Two (2) scanners on each side with a 2D vertical plan beside the vehicle and a scanner on the vehicle with a field facing slanting downwards. The Sick scanners have a field of view of 270°. The blind side of the scanners on the side are directed upwards. |

Software
Simultaneous localization and mapping is a software and hardware technology, which enables the Nipper to map its environment while positioning itself in that environment. When using SLAM, you do not need any infrastructure to direct the Nipper. It can navigate autonomously through your factory or warehouse.
The Bluebotics software allows you to independently program the Nipper and add or change any commands. Furthermore, it is possible to add other devices, such as e.g. a cleaning robot, to the Bluebotics software to enable both devices to navigate via the same map. |
