WORLD'S LARGEST AND STRONGEST SIX AXIS ROBOT

FANUC Robotics America Inc. offers its M-2000iA super heavy-duty robot. Designed to meet customer requirements for handling truck, tractor, and automotive frames and parts, the M-2000iA/900L robot offers a 900 kg payload.

?The M-2000iA is the world?s largest and strongest six-axis robot,? said Rich Meyer, product manager, FANUC Robotics. ?It has the longest reach and the strongest wrist ? surpassing all other six-axis robots available today. The wrist strength sets a record, but more importantly, allows our customers to move large heavy parts a great distance with maximum stability."

The rigid arm design of the M-2000iA/900L has a vertical lifting stroke of 6.2 m for transferring extremely heavy items such as a car body. ?We?re excited to provide our customers with this capability. It will help them meet production requirements, and save significant costs associated with conveyors, lifts and other fixed automation,? added Meyer.

A second model in the super heavy-duty robot series, the M-2000iA/1200, offers a 1200 kg payload. The M-2000iA/1200 can support a 1200 kg payload with a 1.25 m offset from the faceplate and full articulated motion at the wrist. The strongest power for all six axes enables a single M-2000iA/1200 robot to handle a super heavy part, which previously required dual robots.

The M-2000iA, like all FANUC robots, operates with the company?s latest R-30iA controller with integrated intelligent functions such as vision and force sensing.
