Last week, Reach Robotics Mechatronics Engineer, Ben Steer, and R&D Technician, Luke Jackson, attended an industry night hosted by the School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering Student Society (MechSoc) at the University of New South Wales.

The student led society endeavours to support students in Mechanical, Mechatronic, Manufacturing and Aerospace engineering disciplines by hosting academic, social and industry events. The evening was a successful networking opportunity, allowing students to interface with Reach Robotics engineers and other local industry peers.

“The event was a success for both students and industry attendees – it was particularly interesting to see great presentations from other local engineering businesses. Many students studying a variety of engineering disciplines from Software to Mechatronics showed great interest in Reach Robotics internship opportunities.”

Reach Robotics strives to support the future of engineering in Australia through outreach, group sponsorships and internship programs. Our seasonal internships are course accredited, contributing towards students vocational requirements. If you are interested in applying to join us for an internship, follow our Linked In where we will announce the opening of summer application intakes. Reach Robotics also facilitates internships at any part of the year for individual candidates – apply here.

Command Pods

Command Pods are a pair of space mouse controllers comprising of left and right units. They are designed to attach to an ROV control tablet and allow full system control from one interface. The Command Pod configuration simplifies control of a dual-manipulator system as operators are able to intuitively control both arms, while still piloting the vehicle.
The joystick model allows for arms to be directed towards a target while the system automatically maps the arms configuration along that path.

MASTER ARMS

Compatible with all Reach Robotics manipulators, the Master Arm controller is available in five and seven-function models to mimic your robotic arm. Achieve unparalleled precision and accuracy while undertaking complex tasks including:
  • Precise placement of probes for crack and corrosion monitoring.
  • Place and recover objects with unmatched dexterity and minimised
    workload.
  • Attach hooks and shackles consistently.
  • Reach confined areas unreachable with lower degree-of-freedom manipulators
    and traditional control methods.
