How Built Robotics & RAM® Put Devices In The Driver’s Seat

Built Robotics turns excavators into fully autonomous robots. All that’s needed is a brain (Built’s Exosystem™) and a body (the excavator) for a 24/7 trench-digging robot, but the robot is just one piece of the puzzle. These projects require specialized tools, which aren’t cheap. When a giant piece of machinery with a robot brain and accompanying tools costing well over $100,000, it’s important to know where this equipment is and accessible at all times.


That’s why company leaders called RAM® for help.


They heard RAM® had rugged and dependable mounting solutions for tablets and laptops. What they didn’t know was that RAM® has interchangeable solutions with 30 years of industry trust and a lifetime warranty resulting in massive cost savings and piece of mind. Being able to swap mounts and devices between different vehicles while keeping each device secure and hands-free was a major draw to the robotics company. When you use tablets and laptops to run software for a $200,000+ robot, you don’t want the controls to a massive robot lost amongst the tools and supplies that can often clutter a deployment vehicle. This opens the door for costly mistakes, including damage to the device and/or misplacement. It also posed an obvious safety concern. If the device that controls a 40-ton machine is being mishandled, how far does your trust go? Not far, which is when leadership team at Built Robotics turned to RAM® Mounts.

Learn how this dependable mounting solution is helping deployment technicians keep assets secure and hands-free while helping the company maintain safety standards.
