Low cost robotic range from RS Components
RS Components has launched a new, low-cost, fast and accurate robotics solution. Easy to programme – even for those who have never programmed a robotic arm before – the R12 and R17 benchtop robots from ST Robotics are capable of undertaking the most complex tasks, including product testing, sample handling, parts handling, machine feeding, welding, spraying and sound measurement.
Both models are supplied with controller, teach pad/pendant, all cables, connectors, RoboForthII and RobWin7 software and comprehensive manuals and, as a result, are ready to use immediately out of the box. Their high efficiency motor drives, solid machined-alloy construction and industrial-standard quality deliver outstanding accuracy and reliability.
The R12 model comes in five- or six-axis variants, offers a 500mm reach and offers a 1kg payload. The larger R17 model is a five-axis robot, with a six-axis option, and can handle a 3kg payload over a reach of 750mm.
