COVER STORY A
s we draw closer and closer to the year end (a scary thought in itself), it is time to what has been achieved this year. MiR has a long tradition of pushing for the latest innovations and development
and 2024 has certainly been no exception. Of course, there have been many achievements from this year, but the main highlights have robotics and also the implementation of of opportunities for robotics and automation in general and has led to some fantastic to operate in even more complex applications. optimisation through generalisation into new situations and environments to be able to deal with changes in the locations of payloads or in the interactions with people.
MiR unveiled the MiR1200 Pallet Jack at the LogiMAT Show back in March which a variety of different pallet types in use, so the MiR1200 is able to keep a database of pallets which it has been taught to recognise in full 3D. The MiR1200 then uses its RGBD cameras to identify the pallet (also in 3D) and make decisions on the appropriate way to pick it up. As the MiR1200 is identifying the pallet in 3D, it is also able to decide if the pallet is too recognise a pallet, even if it is wrapped. This is a critical function for companies looking for versatility in their sites where robust solutions are needed. The method to able to handle the variety found on a site more quickly. The system is then able to generalise to solve these tasks. This increases the reliability and operation level of the site. pallet types, the customers see increased ease complete the task, the MiR1200 also includes a manual tiler which means any issue can be resolved without the need for high levels of training to the available staff member.

redundancy in operation by automatically switching to a backup system in the event of a failure. Cloud and virtual environments are also supported to integrate to a customer’s
Another key issue facing manufacturing sites is cybersecurity. According to research, 75 per cent of cybersecurity attacks were made to manufacturers over three consecutive years. These attacks continue to develop, presenting an obvious risk to customers. MiR therefore took the decision early this year to provide a cybersecurity strategy with our software offering.
MiR Fleet Enterprise was released in through a Windows based environment and includes key features for robust protection against evolving cyber threats. This is achieved using key security features such as:
Single Sign-on Audit Logging
