What is a multi-shot robotic EOD disruptor and why is it used?
A Multi-Shot Robotic EOD Disruptor is a tool mounted on an EOD robot that allows multiple successive shots (typically 12-gauge or other cartridges) to neutralize IEDs or hazards without repositioning the robot. It increases throughput and safety by reducing robot redeployment. EOD Gear manufactures Pan Rounds and can assist your acquisition requirements for the MRED.f
How many shots can a robotic disruptor deliver before reloading?
For example, the MRED system delivers up to eight standard 12-gauge shots before reload.
What types of cartridges or rounds can a robotic disruptor use?
They accept standard EOD 12-gauge cartridges—slug, aluminum, steel, high-velocity, and blanks—eliminating the need for proprietary ammo.

Can the robot operator select shots in any order while deployed downrange?
Yes. The system’s remote interface allows any of the loaded shots to be selected in any sequence, maintaining full control while downrange.

How does recoil affect robot performance and how can it be mitigated?
Recoil can destabilize robots, stress servos, and reduce accuracy. A recoil-reduction sled absorbs these forces, preserving alignment and extending robot life.
Request a quote from EOD Gear to integrate a recoil-reduction sled with your robot platform.
What environmental conditions can these disruptors handle?
Systems like the MRED are field-tested from –25 °F to +135 °F, ensuring reliable performance in extreme environments.

How does a recoil-reduction sled integrate with a robot and disruptor?
The sled mounts between the robot chassis and the disruptor, absorbing recoil impulses to maintain stability and shot accuracy.
