Konica Minolta Australia, in partnership with global mobile robotics leader Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR), has announced the Australian launch of two autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), which they will debut at CeMAT Australia 2025, running from 22–24 July at The Dome, Sydney Olympic Park.
The MiR MC250 Mobile Cobot and the MiR1200 Pallet Jack provide attendees with an interactive experience of how these artificial intelligence (AI)-powered systems are transforming logistics and production workflows.
The MiR1200 is a next-generation AMR designed for high-speed, high-accuracy pallet transport in dynamic manufacturing and warehousing environments. Key features include:
• AI-based perception for fast, precise, and reliable pallet detection
• High-capacity battery with fast charging to support 24/7 operations
• Compliance with ISO 3691-4 safety standards
• Payload capacity of up to 1,200kg.
The MiR MC250 combines an AMR with a Universal Robots (UR) arm, powered by MiR’s navigation technology. Key features include:
• Seamless machine tending and quality inspection capabilities
• Flexible deployment across multiple tasks and production lines
• Built-in safety features for close human collaboration
• quick redeployment with minimal setup time
• ideal for precision handling in space-constrained environments.
The MiR1350 with Shelf Lift will also be featured at the event. This heavy-duty AMR can transport payloads of up to 1,350kg, showcasing the strength and versatility of MiR’s portfolio, all backed by Konica Minolta’s local support and integration expertise.
Konica Minolta Australia robotics business manager Manglesh Jain said, “We’re excited to bring the MiR MC250 and MiR1200 Pallet Jack to Australian shores for the first time. These solutions offer practical automation that can be quickly integrated into real-world operations”.
Teradyne Robotics (parent company of MiR), channel development manager Masayuki Mase said, “Both robots represent a new generation of intralogistics automation. We’re proud to launch them in Australia in partnership with Konica Minolta and show how they can drive immediate impact for Australian businesses”.
