MC250 mobile manipulator

Combining mobility and precise manipulation in one device

The MC250 is an advanced mobile manipulator that combines the agility of the MiR250 mobile robot with the versatility of Universal Robots cobots. This solution bridges the gap between stationary robots and transport trolleys, enabling full automation of tasks that require both movement and object grasping. The MC250 is designed to work in confined production and laboratory spaces where precision and compact dimensions are key. Thanks to its integrated vision system, the robot calibrates its position relative to markers, achieving precision of the order of 1 mm.

Value for your business

Implementing the MC250 helps solve the problem of staff shortages for repetitive and tedious transport tasks. The robot can work for up to 20 hours, operating various machines or workstations as part of scheduled tasks. The robot's software allows integration with ERP and WMS systems, so that the flow of information and materials is organised, monitored and easy to identify.

Example applications

Combining mobility with a precise arm, the MC250 is ideal for automating tasks that previously required manual human intervention:

• Machine tending: automatic feeding of semi-finished products and collection of finished parts from CNC machines, injection moulding machines and presses.

• Laboratory logistics: safe transport and handling of delicate samples and reagents in environments with increased cleanliness requirements, e.g. in the pharmaceutical industry.

• Pick & Place operations: picking items from storage racks and placing them precisely on the production line or in picking containers.

• Quality control: visual inspection of products using a camera mounted on the robot arm and creation of photographic documentation at any point in the production hall.

• Linear deliveries: autonomous, continuous replenishment of small components directly at assembly stations.

Key technical parameters

The MC250 combines the parameters of a fast mobile base with the capabilities of a cobot:

• Compatibility: Supports UR5e/UR7e, UR10e/UR12e and UR16e arms.

• Total load capacity: transport to 186 kg (depending on the arm installed).

• Performance: driving speed up to 2.0 m/s.

• Operating time: up to 20 hours of operation per day thanks to the fast charging system (20%-80% in 40 minutes).

• Safety: laser scanners, 3D cameras and force sensors in the robot arm.

Available Configurations

The MC250 platform is flexible and can be equipped with different cobotic arms, depending on the required reach and handling capacity:

• Variant with UR5e – arm load capacity 5 kg, reach 850 mm.

• Variant with UR7e – arm load capacity 7.5 kg, reach 850 mm.

• Variant with UR10e/UR12e – arm lifting capacity 12.5 kg, reach 1300 mm.

• Variant with UR16e – arm load capacity 16 kg, reach 900 mm.
