Remote Intervention System REMIS

telerob’s Remote Intervention System (REMIS) bases on the idea of having a wide range of equipment to approach all imaginable types of situations from a safe distance as it is necessary for jobs to be carried out in hazardous environments. The handling equipment is brought in position by an excavator-like track based vehicle which makes the system as independent as possible to the terrain to work in. An onboard video and audio system allows the operator to be virtually present when working from the control centre.


with manipulator

Carrying system:
Remote controlled track chassis with articulated arm, similar to an excavator (see pictures above). It is hydraulically driven and powered by a diesel engine. The carrying system is controlled via a wireless link carrying the RC-signals and also feedback information about
the vehicle status.

Technical data:
Height appx 1850 mm (6’ 1”)
Length (outriggers up) appx 4000 mm (13’ 2”)
Length (outriggers down) appx 5000 mm (16’ 5”)
Width (track gage adjustable) appx 1500 … 1950 mm (4’ 11” … 6’ 5”)
Width of tracks appx 400 mm (15”)
Weight appx 6.5 tons(metric)
Payload at tool flange appx 1400 kg (3100 lb)

The operating distance by a handheld control unit (direct view) is appx 300m (1000’). Driven from the control centre an operating distance of up to 1 km (2/3 miles) is possible. If an additional antenna mast is applied the distance can be increased to several miles.

Video equipment:
Fix cameras on each corner of the chassis for driving, 2 zoom cameras sideways of the arm on tiltable, extentable booms with tilt-swivel head. The viewing area of the cameras is illuminated as well as the working area of the adapted tools. There is also a stereoscopic camera system available as well as a video multiplexing unit to transmit more than one picture per video link.

Transportation devices:
• Carrying system, manipulators, tools

The carrying system with the tools and manipulators can be transported on a trailer or lorry.

• Control centre

The whole control centre can be located in a 4-wheel drive-lorry with box body where the control cubicles for the manipulator arms and their master arms as well as control desks and video monitors are fix installed. An on board generator provides sufficient power to supply the manipulators independently from mains supply. The control room can be air conditioned. The whole control centre can also be installed into a container.

Adaptable equipment:
• Force reflecting-manipulators (telerob EMSMs):
Cable controlled, up to 300m(1000’). The cables are managed by a cable management system located inside the control vehicle.

- EMSM2b, single or double arm
Payload 24kg/45kg (53lb/100lb) continuous/short term per arm
Purpose: sensitive handling of with “extended hands” . EMSM3, single arm
Payload 60kg/100kg (130lb/220lb) continuous/short term per arm
Purpose: powerful handling of with “remote hands”

The base of the manipulators can be equipped with a tool rack which is accessible with the gripper.

A combination of each an EMSM2b and an EMSM3 manipulator arm may cover a wide range of tasks, this arrangement can be improved by an additional cantilevered chain hoist to handle material, slinging happens with the manipulators. The payload of the hoist depends on the remaining payload of the carrying system.

• Hydraulically driven equipment
Controlled via carrying system

• Parallel finger gripper, 250 kg (550 lb) payload, for material handling

• Hydraulically driven barrel gripper, 3-finger gripper to handle waste drums safely (formclose)

• Further hydraulically driven grippers like concrete crushers, scrab gripper or log gripper or other robust tongs and grippers

Excavator shovel and bucket

All equipment is coupled to the arm by means of a universal tool flange, whereby hydraulic connections are coupled inside the tool flange. Force Reflecting-Manipulators stay plugged to their umbilical cables on the tool support unit. Optionally, the above tools can be set on a (mobile) tool support unit.
