ATM introduces seven-axis robot arm
An
ATM Automation product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team
Sep 25, 2008
The MR20 robot arm from ATM features a seven-axis design that allows the robot to closely emulate motions of a human arm, enabling it to perform complicated tasks at high speed in restricted areas.
The MR20 is ideal for integration to injection moulding machines, general machine tending, material handling and case packing.
The robot can be situated close to the side of an injection moulding machine and use the dexterity of the seven-axis configuration to reach into the mould tool space.
The seven-axis system is capable of avoiding entrance in to 'singularity' positions, a problem that can sometimes arise with six-axis systems.
Driven by Nachi's AX20 series controller, the MR20 features a horizontal reach of 1260mm, a 30kg payload and repeatability of +/-0.1mm.
When coupled with Nachi's NV-AX vision system, the MR20 robot can also be applied to bin picking and assembly applications.
