Description
SCARA Robots by San Max Trade
SCARA robots are a new type of industrial robots that combine high precision with fast movement. The design of SCARA robots consists of two connected arms attached to a base. This makes SCARA robots four-axis machines with freedom of movement along the X, Y, and Z axes, including a rotational motion around the Z axis.
SCARA robots are ideal for transferring loads from point A to point B on a horizontal plane, especially when only minimal movement along the Z axis is required. Thanks to the rotational motion of the Z axis, SCARA robots can not only move objects but also perform screwing operations, making them indispensable on assembly lines.
The working area of a SCARA robot resembles a cylinder, where the combined length of the arms determines the diameter and the vertical Z movement determines the height. Typically, SCARA robots operate in front and to the sides, but when electrical and pneumatic connections are routed from below, they can also operate behind themselves. Another key advantage of this type of industrial robot is their compact size and excellent precision and repeatability.
San Max Trade offers two main SCARA robot models – one with a 3 kg payload and 400 mm reach, and another with a 6 kg payload and 650 mm reach. These robots are controlled via a compact yet powerful controller that ensures easy and reliable operation. SCARA robots by San Max Trade support advanced intelligent features such as machine vision systems, conveyor tracking, force control, and specialized tools for picking and placing.
Programming SCARA robots can be done via a computer or tablet, allowing for easy setup and integration in a variety of production environments.
The cycle time for the 3 kg model is 0.33 seconds, and for the 6 kg model – 0.29 seconds, with repeatability of ±0.01 mm. This makes them especially suitable for high-speed assembly lines in the electronics industry and other precision-demanding applications.
