The newly developed motor allows for a far more compact size, comparable in size to an air cylinder. Models are available with the same shape as a typical air cylinder. This ROBO Cylinder can be used in applications where limited space previously required air cylinders.
Cleanroom, dust-proof and splash-proof models have been added to 5 types, with 3 sizes of each type, for a total of 15 models.
Diagonal approaches and tip swiveling, possible until now only with vertically articulated robots, can now be performed with the minimum required axis configuration.
Ideal for reducing the cost of equipment.
With orthogonal axis + gripper pick and place, all axes can be configured with battery-less absolute encoder equipped products.
Home return is no longer required when restarting the equipment; you can move to the next operation while gripping the workpiece.
The height has been reduced by as much 55% when compared a conventional gripper.
By adopting an integrated body frame guide with proven performance for linear axes, the gripping point distance and overhang amount have been improved greatly.
IAI presents our highest-class grip force of up to 300N. (Current limit value 70%)
You can quickly setup movement just by entering data. You can also operate it with ON / OFF signals, like a solenoid valve.
No time-consuming programming is necessary.
With the ELECYLINDER, AVD can be entered individually in percentages to apply adjustments.
Air cylinders cannot operate at high velocity due to the impact at stroke ends which occurs when excess velocity is applied.
The ELECYLINDER can start and stop smoothly at high velocity, reducing cycle time.
The difference in the rate of power consumption for the ELECYLINDER and air cylinders depends on the operational frequency. The higher the operational frequency, the more effective the energy-saving becomes.
Based on tests conducted by IAI, the ELECYLINDER’s power consumption under the following conditions is 1/6 that of air cylinders.
