Dobot Robotics, a producer of collaborative robotic arms, opened its U.S. workplace in Dallas, marking a significant milestone in its world enlargement technique. The corporate can be launching the brand new CRA sequence of collaborative robotic arms (cobots) and the related VX500 Good Digital camera within the U.S. market. The cross-sector merchandise broaden its vary of cobots for firms in dozens of industries, together with electronics, automotive, steel processing, and so forth.
“The Dallas workplace features because the headquarters for Dobot’s North American operations, encompassing a showroom, coaching middle, logistics hub, and repair middle. Leveraging our U.S. subsidiary, we’re dedicated to enhancing help for our native companions and clients, delivering top-notch services and products, and regularly strengthening our presence in North America,” Alla Huang, Normal Supervisor of Dobot USA, stated.
Contained in the CRA cobot sequence
The brand new CRA sequence is made up of seven fashions with a minimal payload of three kilograms (round 6.6 lbs) to a most payload of 20 kilograms (round 44 lbs) and a working radius of 620 to 1,700 millimeters (round 24.4 to 66.9 in). They’re utilized in high-precision industrial purposes resembling pick-and-place, sorting, screwing, inspection, gluing, welding, transporting, sharpening, and palletizing.
In comparison with the earlier mannequin, the CRA cobots supply a extra highly effective gearbox that shortens a piece cycle by a mean of 25%. The management bins of the gadgets are additionally about 25% smaller, are optionally protected based on the IP54 safety class in difficult environments and in depth upkeep is thus lowered in the long run.
Electromagnetic brakes cease the gripper arms from descending inside 18 milliseconds, defending staff within the instant neighborhood even throughout energy outages. As well as, the fashions with payloads of three, 5, and 10 kilograms (round 6.6, 11, and 22 lbs) are suitable with Dobot’s self-developed SafeSkin expertise. This detects obstacles inside a radius of 15 centimeters (round 5.9 inches) and avoids collisions.
The CRA sequence helps Modbus, Ethernet/IP and Profinet communication and connects with PLC and different automation techniques. With 24 obtainable I/O ports and PNP/NPN switching, expansions may be carried out extra simply. New working software program helps graphical programming, scripting and drag-to-teach for trajectory replay.
The brand new VX500 Good Digital camera makes use of Dobot’s proprietary 2.5D spatial compensation expertise, which allows robots outfitted with it to detect tilted or angled objects. This permits quite a lot of vision-based automation situations for cobots of the brand new CRA sequence in addition to the prevailing CR sequence. Customers can arrange the brand new digicam rapidly and simply through Dobot’s newest software program.
