Modular design gives over 500 robot configurations
The BA series ROIbot uses a modular building block design, allowing single or dual axis configurations to be built from the same standard components.
Robots offer long arm and decent payload capacity
The SR-HZ series of Palletising Robots from TM Robotics, the exclusive European partner to Toshiba Machine, feature an impressive payload of 50 or 70 kg.
The TH-250 will be playing solitaire and the Cartesian robot will be demonstrating its versatility in laser tracing applications.
The SR-654HSP will be performing a range of pick and place functions.
"We were delighted to partner with TM Robotics and Toshiba Machine because their hardware and software product offering is extremely wide," said Laszlo Gubicza, Managing Director of Rovitech.
"Our expertise in building automation and robot systems makes them the ideal partner for us.
The level of support we receive reflects this match." The TH-250 SCARA features absolute encoders as standard, dispensing with the need for a home return function.
It has a payload of up to 3kg and a repeatability of +/-0.01mm.
It is particularly suited to applications in the handling of small components, such as electrical, precision and mobile phone and camera parts, assembly and test equipment.
Other applications that demand similar precision are hard disk drive assembly, as well as very high precision work, such as optical lens grinding and watch assembly.
Furthermore, this kind of precision and accuracy allows the user to place electronic components on PCB boards, or even handle the optical "pick up" lenses used in CD and DVD disc drives.
The Shibaura Cartesian robot uses a modular construction, which can be configured in up to 250 variations.
It has a payload capacity up to 150kg per axis and, despite such payloads constant-speed control provides the smooth movement required in delicate applications such as sealing, gluing and water jet and laser cutting.
Meanwhile, the SR-654HSP has an arm length of 650mm, a payload of 10kg and a repeatability of +/-0.02mm.
Also on hand at Industria (Pavilion A, stand 106/E) will be technical sales staff to advise on application questions and provide details of the entire Toshiba Machine range of robots. Request a free brochure from TM Robotics (Europe) ...
