ABB Robotics reports it has developed a hybrid system that combines articulated robot automation with a linear gantry: the new IRB 6620LX is a 5-axis overhead robot arm mounted on a linear axis, that ...

The linear gantry acts as the first axis of the robot, providing the same agility as a standard 6-axis robot. The linear axis can range from 2.5m to 4m (8 to 13 ft) high and from 1.8m to 33m (6 to 108 ...

UDRI excels in robot accuracy allowing path generation and tool placement from part CAD drawings and coordination of probe/sensor placement, scanning, and data acquisition. We can apply six-axis ...

Visitors are amazed at the amount of automation Engineered Machine Products uses. Engineered Machine Products (EMP) got its first taste of the benefits of automation in 1999 and decided that it needed ...

New ZP-6 and ZP-7 two-axis linear modules from Güdel deliver 25-percent more payload capacity than previous designs with slimmer profiles and improved maintenance characteristics. The ZP-6 and -7 are ...

A complete multi-axis XYZ gantry robot can be custom designed from the individual linear guide rails and linear bearings, enabling engineers to select the best products for each area of the design.

For clean rooms using air purges, Cartesian robots let designers enclose the linear actuators in an IP65 structure that minimizes entry of water and dust. Plus, high-performance seals can enclose ...
