New Robot Sets a Benchmark for Small-to-Medium Payload Robots
In Booth B-17048, Kawasaki Robotics (USA) Inc. (Wixom, MI) will feature a new addition to its R series of advanced general-purpose robot arms.
Posted: July 2, 2021
The RS013N offers a 13 kg payload capacity, wide working range, small footprint and IP67-classified design. The robot’s design includes a new arm structure, drive system, and lighter main unit, which enables high speeds and a large working area. Its 1,460 mm reach is largest, allowing for installation flexibility and use in a wider variety of applications. The speed of the RS013N robot results in reduced cycle times and increased productivity. The robot’s internal Ethernet wiring enables easy connection to a vision system or other peripheral devices, and its floor, ceiling and wall mount options provide installation flexibility for any layout. The motor has been moved and covered to protect it from harsh environments and workplace wear, and the new motor location on the base allows for easier serviceability.
