QComp Technologies, Inc Selected as US Authorized Integrator of ABB's YuMi Collaborative Robot
“YuMi will provide manufacturers with an inherently safe, extremely accurate, and flexible automated solution for small parts assembly.â€
Greenville, Wisconsin - October 13, 2014 - QComp Technologies, Inc. today announced that it has been selected as an authorized integrator of ABB Robotic's new YuMi dual-arm collaborative robot. The company, that recently celebrated its 25th year anniversary as a premier automation integrator in the U.S. specializing in material handling automation solutions, will be one of a select few integrators that will help end users integrate the robot into their small parts assembly applications.
"We are very excited to be teaming up with ABB and their amazing YuMi robot which is the first truly collaborative dual-armed robot designed for a world in which humans and robots work together," said Tom Doyle, President of QComp Technologies. "YuMi will provide manufacturers with an inherently safe, extremely accurate, and flexible automated solution for small parts assembly."
The YuMi robot was intentionally designed to resemble its human counterparts in a friendly, non-threatening way featuring a compact, dual-arm body that requires no more space than a human workstation. The robot is the size of a human torso and features a built-in controller, 14 axis of motion, 1500mm/second speed, 500mm reach, 500g payload, and standard tooling options. Its dual-arm capability allows the robot to multi-task processing 2 tasks at the same time. The robot also features an easy-to-use lead through programming capability allowing users to program the robot in seconds rather than hours.

Featured Product
FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
