MX700N General-purpose Large Size Robot LaunchedJan.13, 2010
Tokyo, January 13, 2010 — Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. today announced the launch of its MX700N general-purpose large size robot.
The MX700N is Kawasaki's top-of-the-line large size M Series robot with a maximum payload of 700 kg. The new model features the largest wrist torque (fifth axis) in its class on the market today.
It creates more possibilities for gripper designs and robot postures to provide better handling of heavyweight workpieces.
The new robot model significantly boosts productivity with an increased payload that enables it to move multiple workpieces in a single cycle and handle pallet layers.
This newest addition brings the total number of M Series models up to seven, including the MX350L, MX420L, MX500N and MX700N floor mounting robots, the MT400N shelf mounting robots,
and MD400N and MD500N palletizing robots.
The M Series of models are built to meet today’s growing need for heavy-duty assembling and material handling operations.
PDMajor features
- 1jCompact profile
- The innovative design of the advanced link mechanism employed on the robot’s third axis has enabled Kawasaki to create a compact profile without the use of a counterbalance. This cutting-edge design reduces interference and increases the work envelope for easier application.
- 2jHigh wrist torque
- Kawasaki was able to develop a high wrist torque of 5,488 N-m by utilizing the same high power motors used in the major axes. The improved wrist torque allows for better handling of extremely heavy materials and large-size workpieces.
- 3 Safe design
- Equipped with vibration suppression controls on its highly rigid arm as well as collision detection software, the robot can manipulate large payloads smoothly and safely.
- 4jWide range to choose from
- The M Series offers a large array of models tailored to specific applications. There are four floor mounting models (350 – 700 kg) and a shelf mounting model (400 kg) that have been designed to meet a wide range of needs for high payload assembling and handling applications. Two additional models (400 kg and 500 kg) are also available for palletizing applications.
