About

University of Birmingham awarded a contract to H.M.K.

Technical Services Limited for the supply and installation of four industrial collaborative robots, valued at £214,800.

The robots will form facilities created as part of an ERDF project funded by the European Structural Investment Funds (ESIF), supporting the take-up of high-impact remanufacturing technologies by SMEs in the West Midlands.

The robots will be used to develop new applications in collaboration with technology providers, conduct feasibility studies, and carry out pilot projects addressing local SME requirements.

The project also involves building partnerships with technology providers and defining a joint co-funded R&D programme.

The robots are required to deliver motion planning and execution with high accuracy and repeatability in a safe collaborative environment.
