Quickly Deployable Tabletop Robots
Tabletop robots from IAI are often used as laboratory robots. They are precise positioning and assembly platforms with working ranges from 200 x 200 mm to 500 x 500 mm. The rapid operational readiness without mechanical effort is particularly appreciated by customers.
Application examples:
- Soldering and simple pick & place tasks
- Sorting applications
- Microdosing in biotechnology
- Assembly of printed circuit boards in the electronics industry
- Screw-in and press-fit in mechanical engineering
- Surface coating
- Quality assurance
With a stroke of up to 150 mm, the Z-axis can also accommodate camera systems for image processing and move a total load of up to 15 kg.
Gate or cantilever type
The gate type is suitable for applications in which high rigidity is required. The cantilever type is frequently used where space is limited.
The gantry type has a fixed Y-axis for handling payloads with uneven weight distribution. It is particularly suitable for applications where the X-axis has to carry a heavy load or where a large part of the load capacity extends beyond the slider.
The cantilever type allows a higher flexibility when, for example, payloads with larger dimensions or irregular shapes need to be handled.
Scope of performance
The memory capacity of the new TTA series is up to 255 programs, 16 of which can run simultaneously. A total of 30,000 positions can be stored.
Up to 48 I/Os are freely available for external communication. The torsion-resistant base frame allows a repeatability of +/- 0.02 mm for the entire system. The torsion-resistant base frame allows a repeat accuracy of +/- 0.02 mm for the entire system.
Travel speeds
The maximum travel speeds of the individual axes are around 800 mm/s (for the X and Y axes), around 400 mm/s for the Z-axis and around 1,000 ⁰/s for the rotary axis.
The tabletop robots are programmed using a PC or a teaching pendant.
