If we just could clone
Usain ?! Ethan your great , but not perfect
Industrial robotics innovation looks mostly like bodybuilding
• Not Pretty!• Odd performance
factors that does not match ANY real world problem
• But marketing keeps it alive
• And top level IEEE Robotics Researchers and Industry Innovators, helped to prove we have a new agenda to pursue ..
Short introduction to RAGNAR robot
A disruption in the robotics market
7
Low complexity and number of
componentsMain driver in keeping cost down
Multipurpose and portable platformeasily configured to 3D-printing
etc.
10x lower cost than SOTA 1:1 conventional solutions
Radical workspace extension compared to conventional solutions
1/10 weight and power consumption ratio
compared to conventional solutions
• Newly developed parallel robot kinematics increase workspace and payload, but occupies less space at 1/10 of the cost for solutions available on the market
• Re-configuration of workflow and robot location within minutes• Platform based - not just a single product• Open source, enabling customers and dealers to maximize independence, allowing BWF to allocate resources to further strengthening and developing
the platform and ensure cost-effective and fast delivery

Conveyor Belt
With these three modules, bound together by a graphical user interface, you will be able to recognize and allocate objects, such as apples or oranges, in a basket or moving along a conveyor belt, in order to perform pick and place operations on them, I.e. bin picking or conveyor tracking
A gripper end-effector made of silicon and works of compressed air. It gives the possibility of gently picking up products and precisely placing them again, while maintaining a high capacity
A combination of a 3D camera and object recognition software allows you to allocate objects in a 3 dimensional space. The software is capable of self-training vision models and guidance of the robot
A conveyor belt allows you to emulate an industrial environment and move objects through the workspace of the robot, there by utilizing the conveyor tracking and path planning software

Clay Extruder
Currently we have plastic extruder (interchangeable nozzles). ceramics/paste extruder, chocolate extruder, LASER module (with small power DVD diode –enough to cut paper and engrave).
Enables you to create three-dimensional models in materials such as ABS, PLA, PVA, Nylon, Rubber, Timberfill, Woodlay, Ninjaflex. Standard nozzle 0.4mm, accepts also precise 0.3 or 0.2 mm for ultimate precision.
that enables cutting in wood, paper, cardboard, polycarbonate as well as other harder materials when trajectory is repeated. Transform your robot into material cutter or engraver.
Enables to engrave, cut and mill in 2D and 3D. This toolhead is subtracting material and can cut through plastic PCV, wood, balsa, gypsum, polystyrene foam and other similar materials
Enables 2D printing and simple volumetric 3D printing of food paste like cake or chocolate.
Enables 2D printing and simple volumetric 3D printing of dense masses like silicone, porcelain, ceramic.
