July 2024, Conductix-Wampfler is developing an all-in-one solution specifically for secure data communication of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs): The new Robin'6 will help to reduce integration and operating costs and enhances cyber security.
Robin'6: Wireless data communication on the latest Wi-Fi 6 standard
"With the new fully managed communication device Robin'6, we will set new standards for reliable communication in an ultra-compact, robust design," emphasizes Thomas Förste, Product Manager Wireless Data Transmission at Conductix-Wampfler. For optimum connectivity and integration into the infrastructure, the Wi-Fi solution is equipped with LAN, CAN and GPIO interfaces, which are all positioned on the front for easy mounting and wiring. With a height of just 27 mm, the device is extremely slim and therefore also suitable for vehicles with low overall height.
Convenient, wireless start-up and remote configuration and monitoring will facilitate quick set-up and enable the automation of fleet deployments. Robin'6 has energy-saving sleep modes and digital controls for power management of the function blocks on board the AGV/AMR and even more functions are being developed. "All these features make Robin'6 the perfect wireless data communication device for AGV/AMR manufacturers, system integrators and plant operators interested in long-term cost reduction in the commissioning and operation of industrial vehicle fleets," explains Förste.
Ideal addition to the wide solution range for AGVs and AMRs
Whether battery systems, battery charging solutions or communication and safety solutions - with Robin'6, Conductix-Wampfler will offer an even more comprehensive and ideally matched portfolio of solutions for energy transmission, energy storage and secure data communication for AGVs and AMRs

Additional information
Robin‘6 is the advanced all-in-one interface for secure data communication of mobile robot fleets.
Compared to existing solutions for wireless data communications it has been specifically designed for use with Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR). Robin‘6 reduces integration cost, lowers operation cost and enhances cyber security. It is based on the lates Wi-Fi 6 standard replacing dated Wi-Fi 4/5 equipment that is approaching end-of-life.
All-in-one connectivity includes WLAN, LAN, CAN, and Digital Controls in a compact and robust metal housing. With all connections on the same side installation is made simple. Secure wireless bring-up and remote manageability facilitate fast set-up and allow for automation of fleet deployments. Robin‘6 features energy-saving sleep modes and digital controls for energy-managing of functional blocks onboard the AGV/AMR.
