The robot also features guided programming, eliminating the need for additional operator training. This new YuMi series single-arm collaborative robot, officially launched in 2018, will work alongside ABB Ability™ digital solutions to help customers elevate productivity and reliability to new heights.
KUKALBRiiwa Light Robot
The KUKALBRiiwa is the first mass-produced sensitive robot and also a robot capable of human-robot collaboration. LBR stands for "Lightweight Robot," and iiwa stands for "Intelligent Industrial Work Assistant." The LBRiiwa is available in two models with payload capacities of 7 kg and 14 kg respectively. Using joint torque sensors, the LBRiiwa can immediately identify contact and reduce force and speed. It handles sensitive workpieces through position and buffer control without any parts that could cause pinching or shearing.
FANUC CR-35iA
The CR-35iA collaborative robot, launched by FANUC in 2015, is a brand-new collaborative robot with a payload capacity of 35kg, making it the world's largest collaborative robot in terms of payload. This robot requires no safety barriers, allowing humans and the robot to share a work area.
Using the CR-35iA in conjunction with human labor, it can be applied in industries such as automotive and packaging. This frees up workers from heavy but simple tasks, allowing them to focus on more skill-based work, thus improving system efficiency while ensuring worker safety.
Kawasaki Dual-Arm Robot duAro
The duAro robot's humanoid body features two robotic arms extending horizontally from the body, working in pairs. It can be positioned within the space occupied by a worker, performing tasks that a human would normally perform with their arms. It can also work alongside a worker; if a collision occurs, the robot's operation is stopped via a collision detection function. Specifically, it monitors the current flowing through the motors built into the robotic arms; when an abnormal value is detected, it is determined that a collision has occurred, and the robotic arm stops operating.
In addition to direct teaching methods, such as workers actually moving the robot's robotic arm to teach, tablet computers and other similar devices can also be used for teaching.
Yaskawa Electric's new small robot, MotoMINI
The Yaskawa Electric MotoMINI is a world-class small 6-axis industrial robot. The MotoMINI is easy to reposition, enabling high flexibility in human-robot collaborative tasks. It is used for assembling and manipulating small parts, as well as feeding and inserting electronic and electrical components. The MotoMINI features three main characteristics: small size, lightweight, high speed, and high precision. The MotoMINI can handle a weight of 500g, has a maximum reach of 350mm, and weighs approximately 7kg. This robot makes it possible to manufacture small, portable products using small, portable robots.
Comauer AURA Collaborative Robot
Comau's collaborative robot AURA is the first to integrate multi-sensory perception of proximity and contact with humans or other automated components, as well as the intensity of contact. Combined with the use of a laser scanner to dynamically identify a person's position, this allows the robot to slow down and even stop completely when approaching or actually contacting a worker. AURA can also react to the operator's needs when it senses being touched.
The robot controller also integrates a vision system, which transmits data about the proximity of people to the robot's movement area. Specific software then predicts the person's next action and adjusts the robot's trajectory accordingly.
Han's Elfin Collaborative Robot
This collaborative robot, named "Elfin," features a unique dual-joint modular structure design for easy assembly and maintenance. It boasts a novel and sleek appearance. Its controller communicates with each component via an EtherCAT bus, maintaining excellent anti-interference performance even at control frequencies up to 10kHz. Its high-rigidity design enables a repeatability accuracy of ±0.03mm, making it suitable for integrated automated production lines, welding, grinding, assembly, picking, painting, and other applications.
Siasun multi-joint robot
Siasun's multi-joint robot is China's first 7-DOF collaborative robot, featuring rapid configuration, traction teaching, visual guidance, and collision detection. It boasts significant advantages in high payload capacity and low cost, meeting users' needs for short return on investment cycles, robot safety, flexibility, and human-robot collaboration. It is suitable for compact, high-precision flexible production lines, fulfilling industrial operations such as precision assembly, product packaging, grinding, inspection, and machine tool loading/unloading.
Universal UR10 Collaborative Robot
Universal Robots UR10 is designed for larger operations that still demand high precision and reliability. It automates processes and jobs weighing up to 10 kg. The UR10 is ideal for heavy collaborative processes such as packaging, stacking, assembly, pick-and-place. With an extension radius of up to 1300 mm, the UR10 is more efficient in handling larger areas. This can save time on production lines affected by distance. The Universal Robots UR10 is easy to program, quick to set up, and offers collaboration and safety features.
NACHI Dual-Arm Collaborative Robot MZ04E
NACHI's MZ04E dual-arm collaborative robot can replace some human labor in factory production operations. A single CPU controls both arms to work in tandem, enabling smooth and precise completion of more difficult and delicate tasks, such as assembling smartphones. The ingenious cable routing through the hollow wrist structure intelligently manages the robot's cables. This simple, interconnected wiring prevents interference with surrounding devices, significantly improving the device's reliability.
