Bionic Robotics BioRob lightweight robot

"A robot may not injure a human being [...]" Isaac Asimov, 1st Law of Robotics, 1942

We here at Bionic Robotics have always felt a strong obligation to adhere to the Laws of Robotics. And for a good reason: Conventional robotic arms unfortunately have the design-related tendency to be a threat to human employees.
Our BioRob lightweight robot is completely different - not to say revolutionary. It stands out due to its unique passive safety concept. This concept is so comprehensive that the trade association certified it for use together with humans without requiring further safety measures. Its elastic, flexible design as well as the fact that it is oriented towards humans makes it aperfect coworker.

Thanks to its intuitive Teach-in programming and its low weight, it also is completely flexible. If you like, it can work in a different place every day. BioRob is an efficient partner in theproduction chain and thus the ideal supplement for manual work stations.

We believe all of this makes BioRob a pleasant guy.


BioRob pays off. Quickly.
BioRob has a very successful role model: With regard to its dimensions, as well as to its speed of movement, it takes the human arm as an example. Its elastic safety concept allows for a load of up to 500 g. Thanks to its outstanding properties, BioRob is specialized for the automation of changinghandling tasks with small and medium lot sizes.
BioRob is perfectly suited for a great variety of automation tasks:
  • Palletizing workpieces or finished products
  • Loading and unloading machines
  • Testing or insprction tasks
  • Laboratory automation


Lightness as a standard
Conventional robots with payloads of up to 5 kg and a similar range usually have a dead weight of five or even ten times bigger than the payload. This is due to the massive contruction in order to avoid any inaccuracy of the robot.
Thanks to the lightweight design the BioRob arm has a deadweight between 3 and 5 kg, depending on the model. This is possible because the motors and the drives are place in the basis of the robot. Therefore there aren't any heavy parts in the arm itself. The antagonisctic design relieves the structure and allows to lower the deadweight even more.


Safety as a standard
BioRob protects is colleagues - and your production site.
BioRob's safety has been certified - this was confirmed in a type examination performed by the trade association according to Machine Directive 2006/42/EG. Its contact force in case of collision is definitely harmless, making costly cordons, light barriers and cells a thing of the past for you. This makes BioRob - besides its other numerous advantages - a key factor for an optimal and efficient use of robots. Safe cooperation of man and machine opens up many countless new and flexible possibilities for automation. Create your future with BioRob!


Flexibility as a standard
Due to its low weight and the simple and intuitive programming, it can be installed at different stations within a few minutes and it can be easily optimized for specific process requirements and put into operation.
Your advantage: BioRob's simple operation and its innovative safety concept make intense training of employees and expensive safety enclosures superfluous. This fact alone makes it outstanding in comparison to conventional robot systems. In addition to that, its low acquisition and operating costs ensure quick amortization of the investment. Thus the cooperation of man and machine leads to efficient production and enables optimized and calculable results. BioRob therefore becomes a universal employee in your production process.
