NuVision Engineering's RAPTOR^® hydraulic manipulator systems have been specially designed for hazardous duty operations.

The RAPTOR^® is designed for deployment on all-terrain, unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), robotic combat support systems (RCSS), and all-purpose robotic transport systems (ARTS) as well as other heavy-duty equipment such as excavators or in fixed mount applications. In addition to being rugged, reliable and robust, Raptors provide the user with the capability to operate in extremely hazardous environments from a safe distance, thereby minimizing risk to the operator. The image below shows a RAPTOR^® 300 on a Northrop Grumman TAGS vehicle.
