Gripping automation: cost-effective delta robot from igus as a construction kit13-11-2018
Automate simple tasks quickly, easily and cost-effectively: this is the goal of igus with its low-cost automation products. Besides its room gantries, the plastics specialist has now developed a completely new product in the form of a delta robot. It was presented to a specialist audience at the 2018 automatica in Munich. The robot is based on three maintenance-free drylin ZLW toothed belt axes, lubrication-free igubal coupling bars and matching adapter plates. NEMA stepper motors and encoders ensure the quick handling of up to 1 kilogram with a precision of ± 0.5 millimetres. The complete system has an installation space of up to 420 millimetres in diameter and can carry up to five kilograms at low speeds. The lightweight construction with aluminium and plastic makes the delta robot extremely cost-effective at a price of less than €5,000 and provides high speeds with a pick rate of at least 60 per minute. "The cost-effective delta robot enables our customers to have their own control box and integration at a cost of around €10,000 to 15,000. They pay off after just a few months, a maximum of half a year," explains Stefan Niermann, head of the drylin linear and drive technology division at igus GmbH. |
