Tm Robotics (Americas), Inc. SCARA Robots THP550

Shibaura Machine has developed the THP550, a high-speed SCARA robot, which has been designed specially for high-speed handling applications in the food processing and pharmaceutical packaging fields. The THP550 has an arm length of 550mm and a maximum payload of 2kg. The main features include a lighter body weight and low inertia of the second arm. The first arm is made from solid aluminium for higher rigidity, but the robot achieves extremely fast cycle times of 0.29 per seconds (1kg). The durability of the body structure has remarkable resistance under frequent acceleration and deceleration. The THP550 is equipped with the especially developed controller, the TS3000E, which has built-in ethernet/USB ports as standard. This controller has the capability to share a vision system on multiple robots, so it makes conveyor and vision synchronization effortless and affordable. It also provides easy maintenance for programming data input/output. Additionally, the built-in PLC function allows easy connection with HMI, touch screens and control of I/O equipment, regardless of the robot operation and program. Options such as IP65 and clean-room specifications are available for this model. Product Features & Benefits: Highly durable models Long continuous operation at maximum speed Outstanding performance in high-precision processes No fatigue even from 24-hour, high-cycle operation Lightweight arm and the achievement of low inertia Fast cycle time of 0.3-second level, and 120 cycles per minute in 24-hour continuous operation
