Dual arm mobile robot (MEISTeR)
Dual arm mobile robot (MEISTeR)
The MEISTeR, an improved version of the MARS series, has been developed.
The MARS series of mobile manipulators for work developed at the time of the criticality accident at JCO in Tokaimura in September 1999. It was an epoch-making robot capable of traveling on uneven ground including stairs and equipped with two work manipulators. We modified our in-house robot with the same specifications to apply it to the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, which was damaged by the Great East Japan Earthquake, and used it for various operations. Specifically, for the first time in the world, we have successfully hollowed out a concrete into a cylindrical shape and taken back from a power plant, by complete remote control.

- 1.Drilling concrete
- Drills a wall or floor and takes a cylindrical concrete core sample to analyze the degree of contamination in the depth direction
- 2.Moving on irregular ground
- As the crawler automatically follows the ground surface, the upper body of the robot moves to automatically adjust the robot’s center of gravity.
- 3.Cutting a pipe
- Cuts a handrail pipe with dual robot arms by remote control
