EPSON Expands RS-Series High Performance SCARA Plus Robot Lineup

EPSON Robots has added to their Power of Choice initiative by introducing the NEW RS4 to the RS-Series High Performance SCARA Plus robot lineup.

The new work space design of the RS4 robot provides a pallet size of 778mm x 778mm. A pallet size this large would normally requre a SCARA arm which is more than double the size. Imagine now being able to use a 550mm arm for applications that used to require a much larger 1,200mm arm.

The EPSON RS4 robot offers these features that differentiate it from other SCARA robots available on the market today:

* Industry Leading Work Envelope Usage
* No Lost Space in Center of Work Envelope
* Superior Cycle Throughput
* Zero Footprint Robot
* 450 Degrees Axis Rotation
* Exceptional Flexibility

EPSON Robots introduces New EPSON G1 Mini SCARA Robots

Carson, CA – EPSON Robots introduces the new EPSON G1 Mini SCARA Robots. Leading the industry with best in class cycle rates, precision assembly and motion range, EPSON G1 robots provide an ultra compact yet powerful solution for even the most demanding applications.

G1 Mini SCARA robots are available in arm reaches of 175 or 225mm. They are also available in Clean & ESD compliant configurations. G1 robots lead the industry in footprint to workspace ratios. 225mm G1 robot arms can handle many applications with large working range requirements that other robots need 250mm of reach to handle, thus saving our customers valuable floor space.

Unique to the G1 Mini SCARA robots is that both 3 and 4 axis models are available. The new 3-axis models allow for superior performance for press fit screw tightening and linear dispensing applications. Designed for maximum performance in a small footprint, G1 robots are the most powerful and compact mini SCARAs available in the market today.

Our low cost, high performance Micro PowerDrive RC180 Controller comes standard with EPSON G1 Mini SCARA robots and provides the ultimate experience in ease of use, compact size, and reliability. In addition to all of these great features, the RC180 controller also provides our industry leading EPSON RC+ Controls software and lots of fully integrated options such as: Vision Guidance, .Net support, Profibus, DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP and much more. All this at an incredibly low price! Why choose a low performance solution when you can have a high performance EPSON G1 with Micro PowerDrive Controller?

With the addition of G1 Mini SCARA robots, EPSON now offers 200+ G-Series SCARA robots, ranging from 175mm to 1,000mm in reach and up to 20Kg payloads. EPSON G1 robots are ideally suited for applications and industries which require high precision assembly of small components, demanding cycle times and compact production lines. Chances are that EPSON has the model and configuration you need for your next application since our G-Series lineup now gives customers more power of choice than ever before.

New EPSON RS3 Robot

Rosemont, IL — EPSON Robots introduces the new EPSON RS3 Robot, featuring all the benefits of a typical SCARA plus more. The unique new design of the EPSON RS3 clearly puts it ahead of other robots in its class with superior cycle times and larger work envelope access thus opening up new application possibilities.

“Unique to the EPSON RS3 is our new work space design which maximizes work envelope usage” stated Michael Ferrara, Director of EPSON Robots. “No other robot vendor offers a 350mm SCARA arm featuring the largest working quadrangle greater than that of a typical 750mm SCARA arm. Since there is no dead space in the center of the work envelope, the EPSON RS3’s largest working quadrangle is 494mm x 494mm, which up till now has only been possible with a much larger SCARA robot. With the ability to maneuver back under itself for the shortest movements possible instead of having to move around itself, the EPSON RS3 delivers superior cycle rates. This means more parts processed in less time, while using a fraction of floor space which results in more profits for our customers.”

The EPSON RS3 is literally a zero footprint robot, thus saving our customers valuable floor space. It is also capable of easy integration into compact assembly cells. Furthermore, the unique work envelope allows for unprecedented design flexibility with over 360 degrees of axis rotation for omni directional access. All these exclusive features make the EPSON RS3 robot the most versatile and unique SCARA available in the market today.

The EPSON RS3 is perfect for lab automation and other process heavy applications where large quantities of parts are presented to process or testing stations.
