MiR (Robôs Industriais Móveis) — avaliação independente de fornecedores.

MiR é um fornecedor dinamarquês de AMR com sede em Odense, fundado em 2013 e adquirido pela Teradyne (NASDAQ: TER) em 2018.

O portfólio abrange MiR 100 / MiR 250 (cargas leves, 100-250 kg), MiR 500 / MiR 600 (médio, até 500 kg) e MiR 1350 / MiR 1500 (pesado, até 1500 kg). Forte ênfase na facilidade de implantação, ensino de caminhos sem código e interfaces intuitivas de operador.

Facilidade de implantação e programação amigável para o operador. Quando o esforço de engenharia importa, o editor de missão sem código e o ensino visual path do MiR são genuinamente mais rápidos que os concorrentes.

É um encaixe forte para manufatura de médio porte, ambientes laboratoriais, hospitais (casos logísticos e não clínicos) e pequenos locais industriais que não possuem equipes dedicadas de engenharia de automação.

A propriedade da Teradyne oferece a espinha dorsal global de serviços.

O manuseio de materiais industriais pesados na escala OTTO 1500 / OTTO Lifter está fora do ponto ideal do MiR. Para e-commerce de alta densidade de mercadorias para pessoa, Geek+ / Locus predominam.

Para implantações em grande escala (>200 robôs, local único), o MiR é funcional, mas a vantagem operacional da facilidade de implantação importa menos.

Versus OTTO Motors: MiR mais leve, mais fácil de implantar; OTTO para trabalho mais pesado, integrado Rockwell. Versus Geek+: categorias completamente diferentes — MiR é tarefa discreta colaborativa, Geek+ é de alta densidade entre bens e pessoas.

Versus a Universal Robots (empresa irmã da Teradyne): diferente, mas complementar — a UR é um braço colaborativo, a MiR são plataformas móveis; Casalhadas cada vez mais comuns. Para orquestração de frotas multi-fornecedor, veja orquestração de frota.

MiR is a Danish AMR vendor headquartered in Odense, founded 2013 and acquired by Teradyne (NASDAQ: TER) in 2018. The portfolio covers MiR100 / MiR250 (light payloads, 100-250 kg), MiR500 / MiR600 (medium, up to 500 kg) and MiR1350 / MiR1500 (heavy, up to 1500 kg). Strong emphasis on ease-of-deployment, no-code path teaching and intuitive operator interfaces. MiR (Mobile Industrial Robots, Danish, owned by Teradyne) is the dominant collaborative AMR vendor in light-payload industrial settings. This is TRACIO's vendor-neutral assessment — where MiR's ease-of-deployment wins, and where heavier-duty alternatives fit better.

From a buyer’s architecture view, separate silicon or vehicle hardware from platform software, from workflow applications, from integrator delivery. Conflating those layers is how RFPs ask one vendor to be four things and then punish them for gaps that belong elsewhere in the BOM. Public product materials should be read as capability claims to validate on your floor — not as acceptance certificates.

TRACIO maps this vendor into the correct layer for your programme and scores it against alternatives in the same layer. We do not resell the stack; assessments stay independent of channel incentives.

Ease of deployment and operator-friendly programming. Where engineering effort matters, MiR's no-code mission editor and visual path teaching is genuinely faster than competitors. Strong fit for mid-sized manufacturing, lab environments, hospitals (logistics rather than clinical use cases), and smal

Fit improves when your accuracy or throughput SLO, integration surface and support geography line up with the vendor’s centre of gravity. Ask for references that match your industry, site scale and radio or vehicle class — a glossy logo slide from an adjacent vertical is weak evidence. Pilot on the real process with production interference present.

Also confirm whether success depends on a partner SI. Many credible platforms ship through channels; that is fine if the partner is named, contracted and measured against the same accuracy gate as the OEM.

Heavy industrial material handling at the OTTO 1500 / OTTO Lifter scale is outside MiR's sweet spot. For high-density e-commerce goods-to-person, Geek+ / Locus dominate. For very-large-scale deployments (>200 robots single site) MiR is functional but

Walk away or dual-source when your SLO sits outside the proven accuracy band, when procurement origin or risk policy blocks the vendor, when services bench is thin in your region, or when the commercial model forces platform modules you will never operationalise. A honest “not fit” early is cheaper than a stalled pilot.

Versus OTTO Motors: MiR lighter, easier to deploy; OTTO heavier-duty, Rockwell-integrated. Versus Geek+: completely different categories — MiR is collaborative discrete-task, Geek+ is high-density goods-to-person. Versus Universal Robots (sister comp

Keep at least one alternative in the same layer through design review so pricing and roadmap pressure stay real. For hybrid programmes, expect complementary vendors across layers (for example RAIN identity at docks plus UWB on vehicles, or Wi-Fi analytics plus BLE-AoA in precision zones). See our comparisons for head-to-heads that match common shortlists.

Write accuracy or performance SLOs per zone before you request quotes. Require independent RF or site-design review rights, a live acceptance test method, tag or robot battery and refresh assumptions, integration scope into MES/WMS/EHR, and a five-year TCO workbook that separates hardware, licences, install PMO and application work. Ban vanity metrics that only appear in empty-lab demos.

Commercial diligence should cover support hours for your geographies, spare-parts lead times, firmware cadence, data residency, exit clauses for raw data access, and whether professional services are OEM or partner delivered. For robotics pages, remember TRACIO is locating and orchestration advisory only — we do not sell AGVs or AMRs.

If this vendor clears the gate on your constraints, we will say so. If another clears it cheaper at equal SLO, we will say that too. Independence is the product.
