IAI's Modular Cartesian Robot Systems offer a highly adaptable and efficient automation solution for various industrial applications. Thanks to their modularity and tailored functionality, these systems require significantly less space than traditional articulated robots, making them an ideal choice for operations where space is at a premium. Each robot is configured with only the necessary axes and functions, resulting in streamlined, space-conscious designs without compromising performance.
IAI provides a broad range of Cartesian robot systems that can be configured with 2 to 6 axes, using either servo motors for high-performance operations or more economical stepper motors. These servo motor options are available in standard and high-precision configurations, offering flexibility for different application demands, from simple pick-and-place tasks to more complex automation needs.
For cost-sensitive projects, IAI offers an affordable alternative in the form of its RoboCylinder series. These stepper motor-driven Cartesian robots are part of the expanding IAI portfolio and are known for delivering reliability at a lower price point. The latest addition to this line is the RoboCylinder "IK Series," which now comes equipped with a Battery-less Absolute Encoder. This innovation reduces the complexity of the design and assembly process and eliminates the need for battery replacement, simplifying long-term maintenance.
Performance has also been enhanced with the RCP6 Series of RoboCylinders, which can achieve higher speeds than previous models, making them suitable for high-throughput environments where cycle time is critical.
Another standout feature of IAI's modular Cartesian systems is their extensive configurability. With up to 516 available combinations, users can select from a wide range of setups to precisely match their operational requirements. Recent innovations include a table-type model (TA) featuring a Z-axis and a variant with a ZR unit that incorporates vertical and rotational movement. These additions further broaden the system's versatility, making designing compact, efficient, and purpose-built automation solutions easier.
IAI's Modular Cartesian Robot Systems offer an optimal balance of space-saving design, modular flexibility, and cost-effective automation. Whether using high-precision servo models or budget-friendly stepper variants, these systems provide tailored solutions to meet a wide variety of industrial needs.
