AgileX Ranger Mini 3 Omnidirectional Research UGV

Description

The AgileX Ranger Mini 3 is a compact four-wheel independent steering and four-wheel drive unmanned ground vehicle built for autonomous navigation research, inspection, and mobile manipulation development. Its multi-mode steering architecture goes beyond conventional Ackermann layouts to support Spin mode (zero-radius turning), Traverse mode (sideways translation), Diagonal mode, and Double Ackermann-style steering, giving operators exceptional flexibility in confined corridors, docking scenarios, and aisle navigation. A 100 kg payload class, independent swing-arm suspension, and 105 mm ground clearance allow the platform to carry heavy sensor stacks and compute enclosures across mixed indoor-outdoor terrain.

Power is supplied by a hot-swappable 48V / 24Ah LiFePO₄ battery rated for up to approximately 8 hours of runtime, with CAN bus as the primary interface for control and telemetry expansion. Aluminum T-slot expansion rails on the chassis provide standardised mounting for LiDAR, cameras, GPS modules, robotic arms, and custom payloads. AgileX supplies open-source SDK references and CAN bus documentation to accelerate integration into ROS and ROS 2 autonomy stacks. The platform's stated IP54 ingress protection and -10°C to 40°C operating range make it suitable for light outdoor use alongside controlled lab environments.

Features

Multi-mode four-wheel independent steering Supports Spin (zero-radius), Traverse (sideways), Diagonal, and Double Ackermann steering modes — enabling precise positioning in corridors and tight spaces that a standard Ackermann platform cannot reach.
100 kg payload class Industrial-grade payload rating supports heavy sensor stacks, compute enclosures, and manipulator payloads compared to hobby-grade mobile bases.
Hot-swappable LiFePO₄ battery with ~8 h runtime 48V / 24Ah lithium iron phosphate battery supports hot swapping for continuous operation, with marketing claims of up to approximately 8 hours at low load.
IP54 protection for mixed indoor-outdoor use Dust and splash resistance rated at IP54 broadens applicability to light outdoor inspection and campus environments beyond pure indoor lab use.
CAN bus + open-source SDK integration CAN bus interface and AgileX SDK resources support integration with ROS/ROS 2 autonomy stacks, SLAM pipelines, fleet management, and custom control software.
Aluminum T-slot expansion rails Standardised mounting rails allow quick attachment of LiDAR, depth cameras, GPS modules, robotic arms, and custom payload structures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the price of the AgileX Ranger Mini 3?

The AgileX Ranger Mini 3 is priced at $17,500 in your market. For volume or project orders, contact us for a business quote.

What is the AgileX Ranger Mini 3?

The AgileX Ranger Mini 3 is a compact omnidirectional UGV with four-wheel independent steering and a 100 kg payload class. It supports multiple steering modes including zero-radius spin, sideways traverse, and diagonal motion, making it a flexible research and inspection chassis.

What makes the Ranger Mini 3's multi-mode steering distinctive?

Beyond standard Ackermann steering, Ranger Mini 3 supports Spin mode (turn in place), Traverse mode (move sideways), and Diagonal mode. This flexibility simplifies docking, aisle navigation, and tight repositioning under payload, which are difficult or impossible with a conventional drivetrain.

Which industries and applications is Ranger Mini 3 suited for?

Primary applications include autonomy research (SLAM, path planning, sensor mapping), industrial inspection (route-based facility surveys, environmental monitoring), and mobile manipulation prototyping. The 100 kg payload class and mounting rails support heavier sensor and compute integration than lighter research bases.

Does Robotix Market ship Ranger Mini 3 worldwide, and what warranty applies?

Yes, Robotix Market ships worldwide. The Ranger Mini 3 carries the manufacturer's warranty provided by AgileX; contact us at purchase for current warranty terms and conditions.
