Introduction

Laurel Bank Machine Co., Ltd. has announced the limited release of its new eight-axis articulated robot, xLobomo, expected at the 2025 International Robot Exhibition. This innovative robot is designed to execute complex movements and tasks that were previously challenging for traditional robots, marking a significant advancement in robotic technology. The robot will be showcased at the exhibition taking place from December 3 to December 6 at Tokyo Big Sight.

Features and Innovations

The xLobomo is not just another robotic model; it represents a leap in capability with features such as SkalarMotion and MirrorMotion, which are unique movements that leverage its advanced eight-axis structure. Recently introduced functionalities like the Linear Hold feature and Continuous JOG function aim to enhance its versatility and user-friendliness. The robot will be operated through an intuitive GUI integrated with a 3D viewer and joystick controls for ease of use.

The GUI design allows users to customize the view settings, enabling seamless operation from a single screen. This transformation makes it significantly easier for operators to manage complex tasks, thereby improving productivity across various settings.

Addressing Workforce Challenges

The development of xLobomo aligns with societal needs, particularly in response to labor shortages driven by declining birth rates and an aging population. By facilitating automation and reducing reliance on manual labor, the xLobomo robot contributes to the vision of a sustainable society. Laurel Bank Machine's ongoing research and development efforts aim to implement robotic solutions in environments where automation has been challenging.

Invitation to Experience xLobomo

After extensive development, this limited-release robot will be available for demonstration at the International Robot Exhibition. Attendees are encouraged to visit the Laurel Bank Machine booth to experience firsthand the operational efficiencies made possible by the unique eight-axis articulated mechanism of the xLobomo.
