The Motoman MPX3500 Brings Stellar Performance to Painting Applications

If you are in search of a flex­i­ble and com­pact robot­ic design for your pro­duc­tion line, than look no far­ther than the six-axis Motoman MPX3500 robot. This robot has a 2,700 mm hor­i­zon­tal reach and 0.15 mm repeata­bil­i­ty. It can work with near­ly any size and/​or shape to include recessed, curved, or con­toured sur­faces. The MPX3500 will bring you stel­lar per­for­mance and increased effi­cien­cy with its smooth, con­sis­tent fin­ish in paint­ing and coat­ing applications.

A vari­ety of mount­ing options allow you to stay flex­i­ble with your work-space lay­out; this robot can be floor, wall, or ceil­ing mount­ed. The hol­low wrist design offers a large, 70 mm, diam­e­ter to help accom­mo­date the mount­ing of spray equip­ment with appli­ca­tors with large hose bun­dles. The MPX3500 was also designed to avoid inter­fer­ence between the hoses and parts/​fixtures to fur­ther enhance cycle time, robot reach, and also part access.

Also, valu­able floor-space can be saved as the L‑axis of the MPX3500 is designed with no off­set. This helps instal­la­tion of the manip­u­la­tor close to a work-piece and high­er den­si­ty robot spacing.

The Motoman MPX 3500 is paired with the DX200-FM con­troller. The DX200-FM con­troller has appli­ca­tion-spe­cif­ic soft­ware for paint appli­ca­tions and coor­di­nates oper­a­tion of the robot and paint­ing devices. This includes spray gun, col­or chang­er, and gear pump. Both the robot and con­troller can be used in Class 1, Divi­sion 1 haz­ardous environments.

The DX200-FM con­troller is also avail­able with Cat­e­go­ry 3 Per­for­mance Lev­el d (PLd) Func­tion­al Safe­ty Unit (FSU) to help sup­port safe­ty-rat­ed speed con­trol, safe­ty-rat­ed soft axis and space lim­it­ing, and safe­ty-rat­ed mon­i­tor stop. All of this and more can help save costs and reduce the floor-space requirements.
