Robot Transfer Unit & The 7th Axis

For more details, Please download the catalog below

A Robot Transfer Unit (RTU) extends the workspace of industrial robots by providing an additional axis of movement along a linear track. This allows robots to service multiple workstations or perform tasks over a larger area, increasing productivity and flexibility. 

Key Features:

  1. Extended Work Envelope: Expands the robot’s reach along a linear path, allowing it to access multiple locations or handle larger parts within a single operation.

  2. High Precision and Repeatability: Provides accurate positioning along the rail, ensuring the robot can consistently perform tasks with minimal error.

  3. Heavy Load Capacity: Built to support the weight of industrial robots and additional payloads, with designs that cater to various load requirements from light to heavy-duty.

  4. Customizable Track Lengths: Available in customizable lengths, allowing for flexibility in design to meet specific workspace and application needs.

  5. Smooth and Controlled Motion: High-quality linear guides and drive systems (rack and pinion, ball screw, or belt-driven) ensure smooth, vibration-free motion even at high speeds.

  6. Multiple Mounting Configurations: Can be installed on the floor, ceiling, or walls, depending on spatial requirements, providing flexible integration options in production lines.

  7. Durable and Robust Design: Constructed from durable materials to withstand harsh industrial environments, heavy use, and prolonged operational hours.

  8. Seamless Robot Integration: Compatible with most industrial robot brands and models, allowing easy integration without extensive modifications.

  9. Flexible Control Options: Can be controlled by the robot’s own controller or via a dedicated RTU controller, providing versatility in programming and control strategies.

  10. Enhanced Safety Features: Equipped with safety features such as limit switches, emergency stop functions, and optional safety sensors to ensure safe operation in human-robot collaborative environments.
