The OVR Series 5-Axis Articulated Robot just got an update.

The new OVR5048K1-V extends maximum reach to 480 mm, reduces standard cycle time to 0.7 seconds, and adds ceiling-mount capability for greater equipment-layout flexibility.

More reach and faster motion in a lighter 11.5 kg package.

Developing AGV and AMR software means writing kinematics code for every wheel configuration, from differential drive to mecanum. That code sits between your host controller and the motors, and it has to be rewritten each time.

The MVC01 Mobile Robot Controller simplifies this internally. Once you send speed and rotation commands, the controller distributes the calculations to each wheel based on the configured mechanism. No custom kinematics code, fewer ROS nodes, and a built-in IMU that combines gyro data with motor feedback for gyro odometry and slip detection.

👍For teams building mobile robots in-house, that means less time writing motion software and more time working on the robot.
