ADVANCED ROBOTIC ARMS
Solutions for Harsh Environments
We're changing the game. Our next-generation electric manipulators allow operators to push the boundaries of remote inspection and intervention.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
- Reach Alpha
- Reach Bravo
- Master Arm
- Reach Control
With high accuracy (0.1°) joint positioning and our master/slave topside controller, Reach Alpha is the world's smallest class of robotic
manipulator for the portable ROV community.
Designed to conduct Inspection, Maintenance, and Repair (IMR) tasks usually reserved for human divers, this class of subsea robotic manipulator is compact, light-weight, smart, and tough.
With one-to-one joint matching and comfortable design, the Master Arm reduces ROV training time and enables dexterous tasks not possible with traditional control methods.
The Reach Control software package provides an intuitive interface between operator and manipulator system. Advanced features including kinematic control and workspace definition enable the conduct of complex tasks in remote and hostile environments.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
In our search for the perfect subsystems (robotic arms and underwater vehicles), we came across the Alpha 5 arm that has all the characteristics we were looking for: it is small, lightweight and electrically actuated. The Alpha 5 is integrated with ROS and this is an enormous bonus for us, as we can easily integrate it with the other subsystems in the UVMS configuration. The Blueprint Lab team responded to all our questions, they delivered the system without any delays, and they continue to support and answer all our needs after the system has been delivered.
We have been working this past year with Blueprint Lab and Unmanned Maritime Vehicles Lab at Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific with dual Reach Alpha 5 manipulators on the VideoRay Defender ROV. The ease of integration and straightforward user interface on the Alpha 5 make it an excellent choice for testing and evaluating different tools and tactics as the Navy continues to explore different ways to help 'take the man out of the minefield' when it comes to Navy mine countermeasures and other hazardous underwater operations.
Working closely with with Blueprint Lab, who have been solving the challenges of dexterity and manipulation in robotics, has led to the signing of a partnership that ensures we continue to collaborate and develop together, while solving both customer and industry challenges with the right solutions. Nexxis plans to integrate the waterproof and durable Reach Alpha 5 arm to a range of crawler systems, which means we can now carry out NDT inspections (UT, ET, ACFM etc) as well cleaning and maintenance requiring complex movements, such as FOSAR operations with precision and ease.
"Have had the pleasure of using the Blueprint Lab 5 function arm coupled with master arm controller for a number of days on a deep water project and it is a great piece of equipment, just like having your hands down there on the ROV. Has made it easy to achieve the results we were after".
