It's a reconditioned robot blowout! We recently added three new industrial robot arm models to our Specials page! Check them out!
Motoman SK6 MRC: This six-axis, fully reconditioned robot arm can perform arc welding, material handling, and many other industrial tasks while maintaining a +/- 0.1 millimeter repeatability.
Today’s competitive industrial economic environment demands that manufacturers build the highest quality products as cheaply as possible. Chances are that your company has spent a lot of time figuring out the most cost-effective, leanest way to manufacture your product. What is the best way to do this? Reorganizing the work floor? Maybe. Motivating your employees? Possibly. A new direction in your manufacturing process? You’re on the right track.
KUKA Robotics has introduced a new line of industrial robots with varying payload capacities and reach capabilities. The new QUANTEC series gives users a whole new spectrum of automated solutions to material handling, palletizing, spot welding, and a number of other industrial applications. The QUANTEC series is broken up into several sub-series.
We often hear about what industrial robots are. They cut cycle times, perform industrial applications, and provide many other benefits to manufacturers. What we don’t hear too often is what industrial robots are NOT. Let’s look at FANUC’s M-710.
What the FANUC M-710 is NOT
Inaccurate: A precise repeatability of +/- 0.15 millimeters ensures that the point programmed is the point the robot arm will reach.
Looking for the newest, most versatile solution to packaging and material handling applications? Look no further than the newest edition to Motoman’s material handling line. The six-axis Motoman MH80 offers users a generous 80 kilogram payload capacity, a long 2,061 millimeter horizontal reach, and a precise 0.07 millimeter repeatability.
So what’s so special about the MH80? Aren’t there other robots with similar specifications? Yes, there are.
Looking for automated solutions for your spot welding or material handling applications? Your search is over. RobotWorx has reduced prices on all reconditioned Motoman UP130 industrial robots in stock!
The Motoman UP130 offers a wide working envelope at 2,650 millimeters and the ability to maneuver 130 kilograms. That’s over 285 pounds! Combine these with fast axis speeds, and part cycle times are sure to reduced while increasing production.
With Motoman Robotics' new MyMotoman Remote Monitoring Service, companies can choose when, where, and what to use to check in on their robotic equipment. MyMotoman utilizes cloud computing technology which allows users to access the service using only an Internet connection and their unique login information.
This remote support service makes it possible for owners of Motoman robots to be aware of any alerts and production issues right when they are happening.
Machining encompasses a number of different material removal applications, such as milling, drilling, chamfering, and deburring, performed by power-driven machine tools. Most typically metal but also plastic and wooden objects require machining to achieve the right shape.
Machining applications pose a number of tough challenges. However, industrial robot technology has been able to effectively meet each one.
The Robotics Industries Association just released its mid-year report on North American robot orders and it is safe to say the robot industry is thriving. In fact, the past quarter was the strongest the industry has seen in six years!
The mid-year statistics showed a 41% increase in robot orders when compared to 2010. North American businesses alone placed orders for 8879 robots. Orders from companies outside of North America raised the total to 10,476 robots (representing $667.
Want a plasma cutting answer that will be able to easily adapt to changing products, production goals, and new technologies? Then it is time to consider a robotic plasma cutting system. Only robotic plasma cutting systems provide customers with the versatility they need to compete.
Flexibility: Robotic plasma cutting systems are much more versatile than fixed automation such as CNC machines.
