  • Description

Cobot & AMR Hub in Odense

An office building has been built for Mobile Industrial Robots (MIR) and Universal Robots (UR) in Odense. The two companies are manufacturers of collaborative robots, so-called cobots, which work together and in direct contact with humans. Unlike normal industrial robots, they are not separated from workers by fences or other protective equipment.

The new joint headquarters of the two robotics companies covers approximately 20,000 square metres, divided over three floors. Both the load-bearing components and the walls will be made of wood. The warm appearance of the wood creates an inviting atmosphere and, together with the open spaces and large windows, contributes to a pleasant working environment. In addition to the offices, showrooms and areas for the research and development of collaborative and mobile robots were also included in the building.

 

Two further projects are being realised together with NCC: The School Lysningen in Viborg and the WoodHub in Odense.
