Comau small robot family extended with Racer5-0.63 and Racer5-0.80 robots

Product Launches

Comau has extended its small robot family with the addition of its Racer5-0.63 and Racer5-0.80. The two new robots expand the capacity of Racer3 in terms of payload and reach. Racer5-0.63 features a reach of 630 mm and payload of 5 kg. Racer5-0.80 is also rated for a payload of 5 kg, but has an extended reach of 809 mm.

Both are controlled by the 19-in rack-mounted R1C control that can be integrated into a single cabinet to control an entire line.

The robots are also available in OpenRobotics versions, where the units can be directly integrated with existing machine/line automation and controlled by technologies from B&R, a collaborative partner of Comau.

Both robots are built on the Racer3 technology platform, thus offering solutions that share the same components, in a strategy aimed at expanding the integrated range of robots.
