Tabletop Robot

Attendees can get a first glance at a convenient tabletop robotic design. Featuring easy setup, the TT tabletop robot will be displayed at booth 823. The TT robot is designed to be accurate and convenient. Featuring a rigid base of aluminum extruded material, a high accuracy ball screw, and a servo control motor, the TT allows positioning repeatability of ۪.02 mm and eliminates missed steps. High path accuracy and constant speed are attained through a built-in X-SEL controller. The TT can be used in conjunction with a teaching pendant, PC software, or other tools. It is available in two types, gate or cantilever. Designed for high rigidity, the gate type’s Y-axis is fixed to withstand unbalanced loads. It is also useable for applications where the Z-axis receives a heavy load, and applications where a large portion of the load overhangs the slider. The cantilever type provides a wide, open work surface to accommodate larger loads or those with an irregular shape in a fixed condition. Users can select from two operating ranges. Type 2020 (200 x 200 mm) and type 4040 (400 x 400 mm) operating ranges (X-axis/Y-axis) of the actuator are available.
