Mitsubishi Launches New Robot Series

Handles heavier payloads with a longer reach

The new RV-35/50/80FR series of six-axis robots is ideal for handling large workpieces and heavy objects to expand automation opportunities for OEMs and end users alike.


The RV-35/50/80FR series has a maximum reach of 2100mm and a maximum payload of 80kg, making them great solutions for palletizing and machine-tending applications.


The additional axis interface eliminates the need for additional motion controllers by directly controlling up to two external 3-axis coordinated servo systems, with up to 8 total servo axes.

Case Study: Cobot Trimmer for Plastic Thermoforming Cuts Costs and Risk

As the first known plastics thermoformer to use a collaborative robot for trimming, Kal Plastics is blazing a trail for others. The Los Angeles-based contract manufacturer deployed the Universal Robots UR10e trimming cobot for a fraction of the cost and lead time of a CNC machine, cutting trimming time nearly in half and reducing late shipments to under one percent—all while improving employee safety and growth opportunities.

Watch how Kal Plastics uses a UR10e cobot for a complex trim of a four-cavity mold, forming one sheet of plastic into four parts.
