Techman Robot Inc.

Techman Robot is launching a new collaborative robot (TM5) that features smart and simple designs to optimize collaboration between robots and humans. The product is the only collaborative robot that features a vision system (TMvision) which offers greater precision in manufacturing settings. The robot is pre-programmed with TMflow function software that allows operators to handle the robot with significant ease. The product’s simplistic design includes a robotic arm (equipped with TMvision and TMflow), as well as task-compatible end effectors and peripherals that work together seamlessly. The TM5 can be easily integrated with an automated guided vehicle for applications that require mobility to switch between multiple workstations, and has applications for assembling, packaging, injection molding, quality inspection, soldering, tending, metal polishing, screwdriving for auto parts and conveyor tracking. The TM Robot has a wide range of uses for warehouse distributors that include picking products, placing selected boxes onto a conveyor rail and applying product labels to packages to expedite the distribution process.

“The Techman collaborative robots are designed to optimize the collaboration between robots and humans, particularly in environments, or with tasks, that are unsafe for human workers,” said Francis Huang, senior account manager at Techman Robot, Inc. “The TM5 robot represents the seamless integration of automation into automotive manufacturing sites to improve working conditions and streamline production.”

Noodoe Corporation

Noodoe provides service automation solutions that transform parking lots into hands-off revenue generators. The Noodoe EV S1000, a Level 2 commercial charging station, encapsulates what makes the company different. At the heart of the station is the Noodoe EV OS, one of the world’s most advanced cloud-based operating systems, serving as the “brain” that fully automates the 24/7 service delivery and universal payment processing. With Noodoe EV OS, any EV driver can charge their vehicle, and select their preferred payment method, without having to set up an account. As automotive centers and repair shops begin servicing the growing number of electric vehicles on the roads, shops can install EV charging stations at their locations to ensure that costumers leave in a fully charged vehicle after they come in for repairs. The Noodoe EV S1000 is fully autonomous and won’t require any additional staff training.

“Noodoe’s cloud-based smart EV charging stations provide easy and accessible charging and turn business parking lots into revenue generators,” said Jennifer Chang, CEO of Noodoe. “We are excited to bring our technology to AAPEX and to continue our efforts to accelerate the world’s transition to electric transportation.”
