Kan-Opener

Kan Opener (sometimes written as Kan-Opener) was a competitor robot that competed in Series 5 to 7 of Robot Wars. It was a yellow octagonal robot with two large horizontal crushing claws. In Series 5, it was fitted with a self-righting mechanism, but from Series 6 onwards it was much flatter and invertible. A battering ram was also added to the back of the machine in Series 6. Although Kan Opener never progressed beyond the first round in any of its three appearances, it did win two separate annihilators, the only robot ever to do so.
