Boost Efficiency with Robotic Machine Tending Solutions
Selecting the Right Robot
Machine tool size, design, and loading concepts vary, requiring flexible robotic arm arrangements. Compact robots like the MotoMini, GP7, or GP8 can fit inside machine housings, while larger models operate in front of the sliding door.
Motoman Yaskawa robots excel in machine tending with their slim wrist design, small footprint, and high repeatability. They support various grippers, with media supply cabling routed internally or through a hollow wrist. High IP65/67-rated versions handle harsh conditions, resisting coolant, dust, and chips for easy cleaning and durability.
Machine Tending in Narrow Spaces
The unique 7-axis SIA Series Robots are perfect to work in very narrow environments. Compared to 6-axis Robots, there is no elbow disturbing the motion capability, and the SIA can work very closely to its body.
Machine Tending with Cobots
For compact brownfield machine tending with moderate cycle times, the Motoman Yaskawa HC10 and HC20 cobots offer a smart, flexible, and fenceless solution. Ideal for building mobile loading stations with integrated tables, they provide excellent reach and payloads up to 14kg—even with a double gripper.
As hybrid cobots, they bridge the gap between safety and speed. Simply add a safety device (scanner, light curtain, or mat) to enable automatic switching between safe, slow operation when an operator is present and high-speed motion when clear.
