Yaskawa America, Inc: Robot Offers Superior Path Accuracy for Laser Cutting Applications

Path accuracy can be within 0.1 mm, depending on the application. Cutting of shapes or profiles is easy using Formcut software which automatically generates the ideal path based on user-specified geometry. Circle, rectangle, ellipse, pentagon and hexagon shapes are supported with easy definition of shape and size rotation from a single programmed point. The cut motion start and overlap, robot speed, timing options and corner radii are all defined in a single cut. The robot features a 50 kg (110.3 lb) payload, suitable for a remote laser welding head. When used with a standard welding or cutting laser head, the robot offers higher path accuracy. It has a 2038 mm (80.2 in.) horizontal reach, a 3165 mm (124.6 in.) vertical reach and a ±0.07 mm (0.003 in.) repeatability. It is floor-mounted and has brakes on all axes. In addition to material cutting, the six-axis robot can be used for laser welding and dispensing applications.
