Kawada Robotics Towards Classification Systems & Industries: ‘NEXTAGE’ & ‘HRP’ Robots Integrated with 100 Businesses Worldwide
Located at Japan’s capital and global powerhouse of innovation in technology, Tokyo, Kawada
Robotics excels in each and every intensive aspect in the development of robotics. Acknowledging
among their latest industrial robots, ‘NEXTAGE’ and the humanoid robots of the ‘HRP’ series.
‘NEXTAGE’ demonstrates an all-in-one, dual-arm industrial robot. Their most recognized robot
promotes productivity and ensures labor safety in factory environments, purposefully assisting
alongside people. It is highly-suggested for complex environments, and in a varietal-volume system of
manufacturing due to its efficient features specifically in image recognition system, enabling it to
recognize environments and products, which further showcases the skill to adjust to different tasks.
‘NEXTAGE’ has been evidently integrated along with 100 businesses globally, proving its adaptability
and dependability following its introduction to the accompaniment of robotics in the industrial world.
Contributing Significantly along with other humanoid research companies, and in collaboration
with the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Kawada Robotics
successfully developed the ‘HRP’ series. One of the recognized ‘HRP’ robots launched in 2010, is the
‘HRP-4’. An automation with the goals to address Japan’s labor shortages during the time period.
programmed to perform near-like human mobility intending for interactions with humans.
It was recently revealed in 2022 that Kawada Robotics’ ‘NEXTAGE Fillie’, version of the original
NEXTAGE NXA model with greater and enhanced capabilities especially in a more lightweight, agile,
and skill based improvements. Their recent progressions marks as one of the stepping stones toward
addressing diverse industrial needs.
At the International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) 2024 in Yokohama, Japan,
Kawada Robotics made the significance of introducing ‘NEXTAGE Fillie OPEN’ highlighting its
dedication becoming one of the mediums promoting the breaking-boundaries of robotics technology.
With commendable innovations like ‘NEXTAGE’ and the ‘HRP’ series, the future of technological
advancement in technology and robotics in accompanying the industrial sectors go far beyond the
needed assistance and capabilities. Kawada Robotics exemplifies the commitment to take deep-dives on these modern issues and resurface with innovative solutions, and creations for further opportunities for businesses.
