Logimat 2020
Charging assistant for e-mobility from Kuka
At a joint stand with Schöler Fördertechnik and Cleanfix, Kuka will be demonstrating the fully automated charging and filling of various vehicles with the carla connect charging assistant.
The future is e-mobile and requires charging solutions for the automated and uncomplicated charging of electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles. At Logimat, Kuka will therefore be showcasing its intelligent and automated charging assistant carla connect, which is the result of many years of research cooperation with the Volkswagen Group. According to the company, it offers fast handling, flexible parking positioning, safe and reliable charging and intuitive operation.
Cleanfix produces and sells the fully automatic floor cleaning robot RA660 Navi. To ensure fully autonomous operation, the challenge was to develop an automatic docking system that both refills fresh water and charges electrical energy. The specified criteria for the new Cleanfix RA660 Navi XL cleaning robot were speed, process reliability and model independence.
Cleanfix and Kuka had the idea of integrating existing components from the automotive industry into industrial mobility. The proven plug technology of e-charging technology can also be used in the industrial sector for charging electrically powered industrial trucks. The technology of the tank filler neck proved to be ideally suited for the supply of liquid media.
Charging assistants make the refueling process flexible
Whether private vehicles, industrial commercial vehicles or passenger transport vehicles - whether in private, public or industrial use: carla connect is prepared for the different areas of application and media supply requirements. For e-mobility, the charging assistant automatically carries out the plugging and charging process for electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, and even fully automatically for appropriately equipped vehicles. The intelligent position detection using a camera and the large working area make the application independent of exact parking positioning and the placement of the inlet on the vehicle. The connection of additional vehicles or a model change are thus solved flexibly and sustainably.
At Logimat, it will be possible to see for the first time how the loading assistant fully automatically loads an AGV and a warehouse technology device from Schöler Fördertechnik and fills the Cleanfix RA660 Navi XL cleaning robot with fresh water as required in addition to the loading process. as
