NEW: articulated robot by Motoman

Fast, Streamlined and Powerful n EP4000D and EPH4000D robots feature a 200 kg payload, a 3,505 mm horizontal reach and 2,629 mm vertical reach

n These robots can achieve 12 strokes per minute with a press pitch of 6.5 m. Extended reach allows these robots to service presses with press pitches of up to 9 m. Slender design of the robots allow work in tight spaces and service multiple presses. n The EP4000D features cast iron castings, while the EPH4000D has aluminum castings in many places to reduce inertia of the moving robot arm. The EPH model also includes fans on more axes to dissipate heat generated in high duty cycle press tending applications. n The optional Parallel Link Tool (PLT) extends the robot's reach by 1,650 mm with the robot wrist parallel to the floor. The parallel link tool reduces potential interference between the robot arm and the die. In addition, the PLT allows the dies to be loaded into the presses in the same orientation as for manual operation. Without the PLT, press line installations require that every other die be rotated 180 degrees because of the robot’s S-axis rotation.
