FANUC’s new SR Series SCARA robots feature high-speed, precise operation for pick and place, assembly, inspection and packaging processes in a wide range of industries including this, an assembly operation for battery packs used to power small motorized vehicles such as an electric scooter or golf cart.
The SCARA robot seen here is FANUC’s SR-3iA model, which includes a 3kg payload, 400mm reach and 200mm stroke. Individual battery cells and an empty module travel into the robot’s work area on a conveyor. The robot first uses FANUC iRVision to locate the battery cells and empty assembly modules. The robot then picks the anode and cathode-oriented batteries from the boxes and places them in their proper places within the module at very high speeds. Once one module is complete, the conveyor moves down and the robot completes the same assembly process on a second module.
FANUC SCARA Robots offer best-in-class motion performance while providing a compact, lightweight design that make it ideal for tight workspaces. The system also includes FANUC’s new web-based iRProgrammer user interface for intuitive and easy robot setup and programming on a Tablet or PC.
