Rigid-arm Assisted Manipulator
Advantage of Assisted Lifting Manipulator
- Achieving workpiece flipping and multi-dimensional positioning
- Feel a "floating" sensation during operation and extremely high safety
- Adaptable to complex environments
We have a strong technical team that provides pre-sales consultation, detailed solutions based on customer needs, and after-sales installation.
Rigid-arm assisted manipulator arms are widely used in the automotive, film, paper and printing, home appliance and electronics manufacturing, machining and casting, food, pharmaceutical and chemical, warehousing and logistics, and new energy industries.
Overview
Automated loading and unloading systems are the core component connecting isolated processing equipment and enabling fully automated operation of the entire production line.
Whether it’s machine tool processing, pressure forming, or finished product inspection, our systems can provide stable output around the clock (24/7).
System Composition and Core Advantages
The gantry robot mainly consists of a structural support frame, drive units for each axis (servo motor + reducer), transmission mechanism (gear and rack or synchronous belt), guide rail assembly, and end effector (gripper/suction cup).
- High space utilization: Utilizing a “suspended” installation, the equipment is positioned above ground, not occupying ground-level work aisles, facilitating forklift access and manual maintenance.
- High load capacity: Compared to articulated robots, the gantry structure has extremely high rigidity, easily handling heavy workpieces ranging from a few kilograms to several tons (such as engine blocks and large sheet metal).
- Customizable stroke: The X-axis (length direction) can be extended infinitely according to the production line length, easily achieving a “one-to-many” (one robot corresponding to multiple machine tools) layout.
- High positioning accuracy: Employing a high-precision servo control system and ground gear and rack, the repeatability of positioning accuracy typically reaches ±0.05mm to ±0.1mm.
Core Application Scenarios
XYZ axis gantry robots are widely used in the following fields due to their high efficiency and stability:
- CNC Machine Tool Loading and Unloading: Working with CNC machining centers and CNC lathes, they enable automatic part gripping, clamping, and unloading of finished products, supporting 24/7 uninterrupted production.
- Automotive Parts Assembly: Used for cross-station handling and precise alignment of heavy components such as gearboxes, cylinder blocks, and tires.
- Automated Palletizing and Warehousing: Performs high-speed stacking or depalletizing operations on carton, bag, or sheet metal production lines.
- Glue Application and Welding: Equipped with spraying or welding tools, they perform automated operations on large planar or three-dimensional workpieces along preset trajectories.
Technical Specifications Overview
| Parameter Dimensions | Typical Range / Performance |
| Degrees of Freedom | 3 axes (X, Y, Z), with optional rotary axis (R-axis) |
| Payload | 5kg−2000kg+ (customizable according to structural strength) |
| Operating Speed | X/Y axes up to 120m/min; Z axis up to 60m/min |
| Drive Method | Full AC servo drive |
| Transmission Type | High-precision helical rack (heavy load) or synchronous belt (light load, high speed) |
| Control System | PLC or dedicated motion control card, supporting handheld programming terminal |
In summary, XYZ axis gantry robots are an ideal solution for handling large strokes, heavy loads, and high-precision material handling needs. They not only significantly reduce manual labor intensity and the risk of workplace injuries, but also greatly improve the overall output efficiency (OEE) of the production line through standardized cycle times.
