Yamaha’s Moving Arm type Cartesian robots feature a moving Y-axis arm that can extend the reach of the robot to access hard-to-reach areas. The Moving Arm type is available in both 2-axis and 3-axis configurations.
The Moving Arm type Cartesian robots offer a flexible solution for a wide range of applications. The moving arm provides an extended range of motion that is not possible with other Cartesian robot types. This makes the Moving Arm type ideal for applications that require the robot to access workpieces at different angles or in hard-to-reach areas.
The 2-axis Moving Arm type is capable of moving in the X and Y directions, while the 3-axis type can move in X, Y, and Z directions. The moving arm can be extended or retracted to adjust the robot’s reach, and the robot can be programmed to move in a wide range of patterns and sequences.
Moving Arm type Cartesian robots are commonly used in assembly, material handling, and pick-and-place applications. They are particularly useful in applications that require the robot to reach over or around obstacles, such as conveyor belts, other machines, or complex workpieces.
