Oct 29, 2009
Adept Technology has announced that its Quattro robot has broken the 300-cycle-per-minute barrier.
The record robotic performance threshold was set using the 25 x 300 x 25mm standard cycle.
According to Rush LaSelle, director of global sales and marketing, the Quattro robot offers faster cycles and settling times as well as increased payload and more consistent performance throughout the workspace.
The Adept Quattro S650H is a parallel robot specifically designed for high-speed manufacturing, packaging, material-handling and assembly applications.
It differs from conventional parallel robots in that it features a four-arm kinematic.
The company claims that this design enables high speeds, fast accelerations and good performance across the entire work envelope.
Compact controls and embedded amplifiers facilitate installation and reduce workspace requirements.
The Quattro robot is suitable for flexible packaging, material-handling, kitting and assembly applications.
