Latest IAI News
01. Insert missing parts inspection equipment for resin cases
The inspection camera is brought to a smooth standstill by adjusting acceleration and deceleration. This can significantly reduce standby time due to camera vibration.
02. Tensile testing of wire harnesses – Pulse Press Electric Actuator
Pulse Presses can handle loads in the tensile direction and have no limit on tensile time. High precision judgments are possible at a low cost.
03. Fast pick and place of radiators and tips – IXA SCARA Robot
IXA, very high-speed SCARA robot in the industry, also supports push-motion operation. When fitting part A to part B, the position error can be compensated (compliance control).
04. Glass circuit board transfer equipment
The system is ISO class 2.5 equivalent, making it ideal for operation in clean environments. Arching the motion allows palletizing with the shortest path (arch motion).
05. Automotive connector inspection equipment – Alternative to Vertical Articulated Robot
Diagonal approaches and tip swiveling, possible until now only with vertically articulated robots, can now be performed at a low cost. The wrist unit is capable of interpolating motion with the orthogonal axes.
06. Automatic assembly machine with indexing system (press fitting of bushings) – R-Unit
R-unit controllers can be used with a mix of 24V/200V motors. A single unit can connect up to 16 axes, reducing price and installation space.
07. Orthogonal 3-axis NutRunner screw tightening equipment, Built-in linear guide sliders
IAI’s slider type incorporates a ball circulating type with a built-in linear guide, making it suitable for applications with large rotational reaction forces and moment loads. (NutRunner/Nut Runner)
08. Automatic sorting equipment for corrugated cardboard
Since the speed can be changed during the movement, the cycle time can be shortened by using low speed in the range where the extruder plate for sorting contacts the corrugated board, and then using hight speed for subsequent extrusion movements.
09. Pick and place medical bottles – IXA SCARA
The IXA cleanroom specification is ISO Class 3 compliant, making it ideal for operation in clean environments. Preliminary verification on a PC is possible by using simulation software.
10. Shampoo bottle filling equipment
The speed can be changed during movement, allowing the nozzle tip to move in accordance with the rate of rise of the liquid surface. By adjusting acceleration and deceleration, shampoo foaming can be prevented.
11. Pick and place Sloped Work – Vial bottles, oblique stocker
By combining Cartesian axes and wrist units, the cost can be reduced compared to Vertical articulated robots. In addition, the size of the safety fence can be reduced.
12. Barcode reading of specimen samples – Cleanroom Type Electric Actuators are adopted
The system is ISO class 2.5 equivalent, making it ideal for operation in clean environments. The wide lineup of products allows for a combination of axes with cleanroom specifications.
