Well orientated robot solution for machine and system builders
1 min read
Fanuc Robotics' M-10iA/10S is a 6 axes, 10 kg payload robot with a hollow arm to completely remove tooling cabling from the work area. It can be mounted in a variety of orientations without modification, such as on the floor and ceiling, or at an angle.
The robot's hollow arm has integrated fluidic, signal and electrical cabling throughout, reducing the risk of cable snagging and breakages. By routing cables through to the wrist flange full tool rotation is achieved.
The high speed and inertia of the M-10iA/10S together with its 1,098 mm reach make multi- task applications, such as machine load, assembly and inspection, straight-forward. The ability of joint 3 to flip is particularly useful for inverted mount installations to maximise the work envelope.
The wrist is sealed to IP67 making it suitable for more aggressive environments, such as water jet cutting and casting applications.
The M-10iA/10S runs with FANUC Robotics' intelligent controller, the R-30iA series, an open-architecture system with integrated intelligent functions including vision and force sensing.
Where vision is required the R-30iA controller helps reduce integration time and cost with its integrated iRVision system. Only a camera is required to integrate vision with the controller.
Control of up to 40 multiple axes is available with the R-30iA controller and when used in multi-arm mode, one controller can control four arms and four auxiliary axes groups.
The Programmable Machine Controller (PMC) has an integrated monitor which allows the user to watch the PMC ladder in a graphic display for all levels and sub programs.
