Kinisi Robotics Kinisi 01 (KR1)
Kinisi 01 (KR1) is a wheeled dual-arm mobile robot for warehouse tasks with 25 kg dynamic payload.
The Kinisi 01 (also KR1) is a mobile robot from US-based Kinisi Robotics, built for warehouse work. According to the manufacturer top speed is 2.4 m/s and payload 25 kg dynamic and 40 kg static. A 48 V, 20 Ah battery is hot-swappable and gives 6 to 8 hours of use; charging to 80 percent takes 90 minutes. The robot has stereo depth cameras, a 180° LiDAR with SLAM and an NVIDIA Jetson for on-board processing. It has an omnidirectional base and quick-swap grippers, including vacuum. Kinisi also names palletising and depalletising. The figures are manufacturer values under typical industrial duty cycles.
