Fastest SCARA Robot in the Industry New longer arm reach

New Arm Lengths 800/1000mm types have been added to the IXA Series High-speed SCARA robots.   The high-speed IXA SCARA Robot holds the fastest cycle times and yet achieves a lower price than previous SCARA models. The arch motion smoothly blends both horizontal and vertical motion to accomplish continuous high-speed cycle times.    The new SCARA robot is even more affordable than previous models. Plus, it offers even better performance and functionality.    Fastest in the Industry Achieves lower price Low Vibration, accurate positioning Equipped with a battery-less Absolute Encoder as standard Learn more about IXA SCARA Robots

Dorner & Universal Robots Work Hand-in-Hand Amplify your conveyor system with robotics

The integration between conveyors and robotics work hand-in-hand to deliver a streamlined, efficient operation with more accuracy and a strong return-on-investment even for smaller operations.. This joint effort is only going to get stronger within industries like packaging as conveyors become more advanced in their integration capabilities with robotics. A good example of robotics being deployed in smaller operations are in end-of-line applications where palletizing is required for lighter parts. Robots can remove employees from the monotonous, repetitive action of loading and unloading pallets all day long, which in the long run saves an organization money in time and labor, while reducing risk of injury.

Lean Managed 8-Port Switches Secure networking with Power-over-Ethernet

WAGO's Lean Managed switch is a secure configurable industrial ETHERNET switch with eight 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, all of which support 30 W “Power over Ethernet” (PoE+), and two SFP 100BASE-FX/1000BASE-LX/SX/ZX ports (SFP modules are available as an option).   Enclosed in a rugged housing, this switch offers both a redundant power supply and relay-based function monitoring. This device also streamlines network management: Commissioning and diagnostics are intuitive and can be performed without extensive IT knowledge. Network segmentation per IEEE802.1Q (max. 5 VLANs), authentication of network devices per IEEE802.1X, firewall functions using the access-control list (max. 32 entries)/service control, port security increase the security of the network.

2-Finger Gripper with Protective Cover Efficiency in minimum space

The MGP-plus combines an oval piston drive with roller guides, guaranteeing a high level of efficiency and making it the 2-finger gripper for small components with the most compact performance on the market. Due to the high force and payload, longer gripper fingers and higher gripping forces are possible with the same gripper size.   The version with protective cover protects the gripper comprehensively against external influences such as splash water, dust, and dirt. The protective cover is approved for use up to IP protection class 54 and certified with cleanroom class 6. The MPG-plus with protective cover is especially suited for workpiece handing in the industries food, pharma and medicine. Learn more about MGP-plus Grippers
