SCARA Robots Applications Compared with other industrial robot designs, SCARA robots are known for being limited in their directions, including a high rigidity in the Z direction. This strict compliance in motion allows SCARA robots to operate faster than other industrial robots with more flexible automation designs. For this reason, SCARA robots are primarily used in automated assembly, as well as “pick and place” applications, where the machine move relatively heavy components from one bin to another work station. Nevertheless, this perceived strength negates a primary purpose manufacturers have found useful in robotic automation. By only utilizing four-axis motion, SCARA robots are limited as a flexible automation system and may only be used in specific applications.
Intelligent Solutions FANUC Robotics has the intelligent robot solutions that provides the speed and strengths of comparable SCARA robots without discounting the benefits of a flexible automation system. FANUC Robotics is the world’s leading supplier of industrial robotic systems, with six degrees of freedom. This greatly increases automated robotic system capabilities, changing from one work station to another with limited downtime or completing changing applications, from an assembly robot to material handling robots to a robotic painting system. This allows your factory to quickly change production process and take the competitive advantage.
