FANUC Robots make a career in Cinema for Louis Vuitton.

FANUC for Louis Vuitton


The company, Autofuss, has recycled three FANUC s430iL industrial robots from the automobile industry to convert them to the arts and entertainment industry.
The three robots (Puck, Gilda and Rosie) are now cameramen.
They can take complex and accurate shots and we’ve recently been able to catch a glimpse of them in a commercial for Louis Vuitton.
A Fanuc s430iL measures 2.23 m in height and weighs 1301 kg.
The robot can carry 125 kg and its arm has a range of 3 meters. It moves at a speed of 2 m per second and has an accuracy of +/- 0.3 millimeters. Fanuc Servo Amplifiers


INDRAMAT - Part, repair, spares, exchange...


Indramat was acquired by the hydraulic concern Rexroth in 1965, in order to gain competence in machine control. At that time, Indramat was moved to the German town of Lohr am Main, Rexroth’s headquarters. In 1968 Rexroth, including Indramat GmbH, was taken over by Mannesmann AG. In 2001, after the hostile takeover of Mannesmann by Vodafone, the industrial portion of Mannesmann was acquired by Robert Bosch GmbH, including Rexroth and Indramat. The new entity was named Bosch Rexroth, and Indramat GmbH became the Electric Drives and Controls Technology Group under Bosch Rexroth. The name Indramat was no longer used.
In 2001 Indramat employed 1,500, with a turnover of 261 million Euro. Exports constituted 52% of the business.
