Omron Corporation has announced the i4 line of SCARA robots, which save space during installation and allow easy configuration into existing production lines. The i4 is fast, repeatable, easy to operate and flexible for multiple configurations and applications.
The line features good communication through EtherCAT, enabling synchronisation between other automation devices. This facilitates advanced assembly, inserting and mounting processes that require high accuracy and demanding throughput, as well as ensured quality control with vision integration.
It visualises working data and supervises its status with built-in signals for preventive maintenance, allowing users to mitigate unplanned downtime. The SCARA line can meet the demands of mass customisation, allowing manufacturers to produce high mixes of products at low volume to offer a wide array of goods.
The compact controller (iCS) is fully integrated into a stylised base, minimising footprint and wiring with no flyover cable and making the i4 easy to install. The series will run on interactive software that will make it easy for users to program and use the robots.
The first three models — the i4-650, i4-750 and i4-850 — will have an arm reach of 650, 750 and 850 mm, respectively. The payload can hold up to 15 kg. Users also have a choice of two different Z-axis strokes (210 and 410 mm) for each robot.
Special models will include the IP65, Clean Room ISO 4 (Class 10), ESD and models that use H1 grease.
