The mechanics team is responsible for the basic set-up and movement of inspection robots. Its main areas of work are precision mechanics, with the emphasis on locomotion technology and kinematics, and obstacle handling. Given the generally very rough environments in which they operate, inspection robots must be robust and reliable, take up a minimum of space, and be mobile and agile. They must also be protected from external influences such as dust, dirt, liquids and gases. Tailormade solutions integrating a range of applications such as cleaning, measurement or mechanical processing can be created in response to specific customer requirements. The mechanics team works with state-of-the-art design tools such as CAD/CAE (computer aided design and engineering), and specific processes that enable the rapid development of prototypes.
