HIROSE’s Connectors for Vehicles and Robots
Connectors for AGV/AMR
The use of automated guided vehicles and autonomous mobile robots is on the rise.
HIROSE offers a wide range of connectors for use in AGV/AMR, including internal connectors such as board-to-board connectors and power supply connectors for batteries and motors.
Demand for AGV/AMR applications for unmanned goods transportation is increasing as manufacturing plants evolve into smart factories with the proliferation of Industry 4.0.
Increasing demand for AGV/AMR is also seen in distribution warehouses, due to the increased volume of goods handled by the proliferation of e-commerce.
In recent years, AGV/AMR has been used not only for transporting goods in factories and warehouses, but also for delivery, security, cleaning, and food delivery. With such advances in functionality, the number of mounted components, including cameras and LiDAR, increases, resulting in the need to save space and wiring inside the device.
These devices must be rugged enough to withstand vibrations during travel. There are also cases where water resistance and high-speed transmission performance are required. HIROSE offers various high-performance connectors for all these demanding functional requirements.

DF60
The DF60 series is a wire-to-board connector for internal power supply with max. 65A.
The positive lock and 5-point contact design provide high contact reliability. Finger protection and keying variations are available for safe use.
Three connection orientations are available:
- Straight
- Right angle
- Inline
DF51/DF51K
The wire-to-board connector with a pitch of 2mm and a maximum current rating of 2A ensures a stable connection.
Various configurations are available:
- Straight
- Angled
- Inline in single or double row
The series is available with both side locking (DF51) and center locking (DF51K).
LF Series
The LF series is a small, rugged circular connector with metal housing.
IP67 and IP68 compliant, this product can be safely used in locations where there is a risk of condensation or water damage.
In addition, the small and robust shield design prevents interference signals.
Different variants are available:
- Straight and right angle
- Solder or crimp connection
- Power/signal/hybrid layouts
F23/FX23L
The FX23 and FX23L are board-to-board floating connectors with 0.5mm pitch.
The large floating range of ±0.6mm in the X and Y directions enables automated mounting of multiple connectors on one PCB. FX23 and FX23L support 8+Gbps high speed and have power contacts supporting 3A/pin.
A wide variety of stacking heights are available, from 8 to 30mm.
U.FL Series
The U.FL Series is small coaxial connector with mating height of 1.9 to 2.4mm.
It has a very small board mounting area of 7.7mm² and supports up to 18GHz frequency.
The plug is compatible with ultra-fine fluororesin cables and is available in two types:
- Solder
- Solderless
ZE05
The ZE05 Series is a wire-to-board interface connector for automotive application.
The space-saving design with size 05 terminal and 2mm pitch contributes to miniaturization.
The series can withstand high temperatures up to 125°C.
The unique terminal design has a double layer spring construction that enables three contact points for high contact reliability and vibration resistance.
