How fast does a Nipper™ go?
The maximum speed of a Nipper™ is 1 meter per second, which is equivalent to 3.6 km/h. This speed is not changed by the load. However, it is possible to set the speed according to rules. For example, you can ‘teach’ the Nipper™ to slow down when approaching intersections or pedestrian crossings.
What is the maximum load weight?
1000 kilograms.
How can I start a mission?
The Nipper™ operates based on missions. These can be triggered either physically or automatically. Physical triggering is possible via sensors that detect the presence of a pallet, or by manually pressing a button (or touchscreen) to give the Nipper™ its mission.
Automatic triggers are possible with the output of other machines (for example, a Dino Stretch Hood machine or a palletizer robot) or through ERP and WMS. We also have a SAP module that can trigger missions.
How long can the Nipper™ run on a full battery?
Depending on the floor surface, the Nipper™ can operate reliably for 4 to 5 hours. (The more uneven the surface, the more the Nipper™ has to work to stabilize itself.) Also, to answer your next question, the battery can be charged from 20 to 80% in 30 minutes.
What is its turning radius?
The Nipper has a turning circle of 1700 mm. However, it still needs 30 centimeters for pallet detection. In other words, a small turning radius ideal in narrow spaces!
Does a pallet have to be perfectly positioned?
No – the Nipper allows a deviation of 7°, or 10 centimeters.
What is the maximum slope it can climb?
The Nipper™ can climb slopes of up to 3°, even when fully loaded.
