Offering the highest operating performance in their class, Yaskawa Motoman’s (Dayton, OH) SG-Series SCARA robots enable extremely fast and precise operation for small part processing. Ideal for applications that require short cycle times, the robots require minimal installation space and yield substantial results with little capital investment.
Available in two models, the horizontally articulated SG400 and SG650 robots are well-suited for assembly and sortation as well as multiprocess systems requiring pick-and-place capability. Featuring a high work-envelope-to-mounting- surface ratio, each model easily integrates with existing robotic automation and is easily redeployed.
Each model is highly repeatable and offers a wide 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 quick and efficient. A single cable is all that is needed to connect the manipulator to the controller, resulting in easy setup 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 same YRC1000micro controller used on 6-axis Yaskawa robots. The controller uses a lightweight standard teach pendant with intuitive programming and can be installed in a vertical or horizontal position as well as within a 19-inch rack.
