For decades, manufacturers have had very few cost-effective options for low volume, high mix production jobs. Then came Baxter – the first safe, flexible, affordable alternative to fixed automation. Companies globally have integrated Baxter into their workforce, and gained a competitive advantage.
Baxter is a proven industrial automation solution for a wide range of tasks – from line loading and machine tending, to packaging and material handling.
USE IT TO YOUR ADVANTAGE
Baxter is safe next to people on a production line, without the need for caging – saving money and valuable floor space.
Baxter, powered by Intera, is trained by demonstration using existing personnel, reducing time and cost.
Baxter is flexible for a range of applications and re-trainable across lines and tasks – it can be repurposed quickly across jobs.
Baxter deploys quickly and can connect to other automation in the work cell – often without third party integration.
The patented technology in Baxter’s joints respond to force, allowing it to “feel” its way into fixtures.
With 7 DoF Baxter’s arms can maneuver much like a human’s arms, and reduce work cell reconfiguration.
With a smaller footprint and longer reach than Baxter, Sawyer collaborative robots take up less space and can maneuver into tight spaces, while continuing to offer safety and affordability to manufacturers of all sizes.
Baxter’s on the Job
Can be used to pick up a wide range of objects, especially if they’re smooth, non-porous or flat. Connect directly to external air lines.
Optional rolling pedestal with industrial grade casters makes it easy to move Baxter quickly and safely between workstations.
Field tested, built to last
While we may not call it an “industrial robot,” Baxter is right at home in industrial environments. It’s a proven solution that is hard at work in facilities of all sizes.
