Manufacture of thermoformed plastic body parts for AMR robots by Plastisart Plastisart manufactures body parts for AMR

At Plastisart, we are committed to providing innovative and customised manufacturing solutions to meet the specific needs of our customers. This achievement highlights our successful collaboration with a customer in the robotics industry for the design and manufacture of thermoformed plastic body parts for autonomous mobile robots (AMRs).

Technical challenges and innovative solutions

When our customer approached us with the need to produce body parts for their AMR robots, we immediately understood the importance of this project. The parts not only had to be impact-resistant, but also had to allow the status LEDs to be visible through the bodywork.

Our team of experts rose to the challenge by proposing innovative solutions at every stage of the process.

First, we developed the necessary tools for thermoforming the parts using our expertise in custom tool design. This crucial step ensured the precision and quality of the final parts.

Opal polycarbonate for strength and functionality

To meet the impact resistance and LED visibility requirements, we selected opal polycarbonate as the material of choice. This opal material offers excellent impact resistance while allowing the LEDs to shine through the bodywork, which is essential for the safe and efficient operation of AMR robots.

Custom coating for the finish

Once the thermoformed parts were manufactured, we applied a custom coating for the finish. This coating was specifically formulated to withstand the environmental conditions to which AMR robots are exposed, while offering the possibility of customising each part with the customer's brand.

Results and impact

The result of our collaboration was the successful production of exceptional thermoformed plastic body parts for our customer's AMR robots. These parts not only exceeded expectations in terms of quality and durability, but also strengthened our client's brand identity through custom branding.

At Plastisart, we pride ourselves on our ability to take on technical challenges and deliver custom manufacturing solutions that contribute to our clients' success. This case study demonstrates our commitment to innovation and quality in every project we undertake.
