Medical Devices

Modern robots pack high-power motors, real-time controllers, vision systems, and wireless modules into compact, lightweight bodies. In electrically noisy environments—near VFDs, welders, or other robots—even minor EMI can disrupt:

Joint torque sensors → safety shutdowns
Camera/LiDAR data → navigation errors
EtherCAT/PROFINET/CAN bus → communication latency
Wi-Fi/Bluetooth → lost remote control

Konlida’s robotics-optimized EMI materials deliver high shielding performance without adding weight or rigidity, enabling reliable, safe, and certifiable robot operation in real-world industrial and commercial settings.

Unique EMI Challenges in the Robotics Industry

Challenge	Impact
Lightweight Plastic Housing	Lacks metallic shielding, leading to easy EMI leakage
High-Density Electronics Integration	Motors, controllers, and sensors are closely packed, causing severe crosstalk
Dynamic Moving Parts	Rigid shielding materials prone to fatigue and fracture under repeated motion
Non-Magnetic Requirement	Magnetic materials interfere with torque and Hall-effect sensors
Reliance on Wireless Communication	Wi-Fi 6 / BLE / UWB signals are vulnerable to internal noise interference
