Vehicle V1000

The solution when it has to be mobile: the V1000

Der V1000 ist die kabelgebundene Version des A1000 für Einsatzorte, die für Menschen nicht zugänglich sind. Trotz einer Traglast von bis zu 100 kg bleibt das Fahrzeug auch auf Treppen, Steigungen und unterschiedlichsten Untergründen stabil und kontrollierbar. Sein modularer Aufbau ermöglicht den Wandel vom robusten Basisfahrzeug hin zu einem hochspezialisierten Remote-Handling-System: kompatibel mit A1000-Manipulatoren, ausrüstbar mit maßgeschneiderten Modulen und flexibel anpassbar.

Im Hinblick auf Wartung und Zuverlässigkeit setzt der V1000 bewusst auf ein robustes, nahezu elektronikfreies Konzept: Abgesehen von der Kameratechnik kommen keine sensiblen elektronischen Komponenten zum Einsatz. Das reduziert die Störanfälligkeit und vereinfacht Service und Instandhaltung erheblich.

Application areas of the V1000:

  • as a supplement to the safety and emergency concept of nuclear power plants
  • Salvages
  • Repairs
  • indoors and outdoors
  • on difficult surfaces
  • on stairs

Vehicle V1000 Advantages

Strong arguments for the V1000

The V1000 makes permanently installed manipulator arms mobile and operational - even in places where people or other machines cannot reach. It lifts loads of up to 100 kg, reaches up to 2 m with its arm and offers six degrees of freedom plus linear movement - allowing gripping and hand movements to be controlled precisely and flexibly. Thanks to its chain-driven chassis, it moves safely even on stairs, steep inclines or uneven terrain, ensuring that it remains reliable in demanding environments. It is also modular and compatible with accessories from proven manipulators - making it versatile and economically attractive.

Further information on the V1000 vehicle

Stable, flexible and modular

The V1000 - the mobile manipulator vehicle for demanding applications where man and machine can no longer reach. The chain-driven system makes stationary manipulator arms mobile and brings previously inaccessible work areas within reach. With a load capacity of up to 100 kg, an arm length of up to 2 m and 6 degrees of freedom + linear stroke with gripper, the V1000 delivers maximum flexibility and precision.

Robust und vielseitig einsetzbar – der V1000 meistert unwegsames Gelände, Treppen, steile Neigungen oder glatte Oberflächen, drinnen wie draußen. Besonders in Bereichen, in denen Sicherheit, Strahlenbeständigkeit und Dekontaminierbarkeit gefragt sind (z. B. nukleare Anlagen oder Chemieindustrie), punktet der V1000 dank stabilem Chassis und strahlungsresistenten, leicht zu reinigenden Oberflächen.

Thanks to its modular design and compatibility with tools and accessories from proven manipulators, the V1000 can be individually configured - for ideal performance during rescue, recovery, maintenance, repair or dismantling.
