High-Speed SG-Series SCARA Robots



"Offering the highest operating performance in its class, Yaskawa Motoman's new SG-series SCARA robots enable fast and precise operation for small part processing," said a company spokesperson. "Ideal for a variety of applications that require short cycle times, these robots require minimal installation space and yield substantial results with little capital investment."

Available in two compact models, the horizontally articulated SG400 and SG650 robots are suited for assembly and sortation, as well as multi-process systems requiring pick & place capability. Featuring a high work envelope to mounting surface ratio, each flexible model can be easily integrated with existing robotic automation and can readily be redeployed.

The SG400 robot features a 400 mm radial reach, a 200 mm long U-axis stroke and a 3 kg maximum payload, and the SG650 offers a 650 mm radial reach, 210 mm long U-axis stroke and a 6 kg payload capacity. Each model is designed to be highly repeatable and offers a variety of fieldbus connectivity options.

Easy-to-integrate vision functionality with MotoSight 2D, a Cognex In-Sight based vision system, provides feature-rich functionality and reduces the cost of expensive tooling for locating parts.

Installation is designed to be quick and efficient. A single cable is all that is needed to connect the manipulator to the controller, resulting in easy set-up and reduced expenses for maintenance and spare parts inventory. Built-in air lines, user IO wiring and a hollow tool shaft simplify tool integration.

SG-series robots are controlled by the compact YRC1000micro controller-the same controller used on 6-axis Yaskawa robots. This controller utilizes a lightweight standard teach pendant with intuitive programming and can be installed in either a vertical or horizontal position, as well as within a 19" rack.
