Squirrel ​with Doosan cobots: versatility and a wide range of action

Space for movement 

The Squirrel configuration, based on Doosan technology, is designed for production lines that require maximum flexibility in terms of space and a large working area. Thanks to the advanced kinematics of the Doosan arm, this version excels in layouts where the pick-up and set-down points require a greater working range. 

This is the ideal solution for those who refuse to compromise on capacity and are looking for seamless integration into end-of-line systems covering large areas, while consistently delivering millimetre-scale precision and exceptional smoothness of movement.

S​quirrel ​with Fanuc cobots: compact efficiency and modularity 

Power in a compact format 

Integration with the Fanuc system is the ultimate way to optimise space. This version of Squirrel has been designed for high-density industrial settings, where every square inch of space counts. The strength of the Fanuc version lies in its scalability: the structure can be made to fit extremely narrow logistic routes, with a minimum width of only 1700 mm. 

The choice of Fanuc gives you the Japanese brand’s legendary reliability in a "slim" design with no compromise on lifting power.
