Scara Robots Assemble Automotive Electronic Steering Gear

EPSON scara robot assembles an electronically adjustable steering gear.  

Scara Robot Assembles Precision Light Bulbs

EPSON scara robot assembles tight tolerance fitting miniature light bulbs used in medical devices.  

6-Axis Robot Applies Tamper Proof Seal to Boxes to Prevent Counterfeiting

EPSON ceiling mount 6-axis robot applies special tamper proof, serialized factory seal to boxes. A loss prevention tool, the end user wanted to stop counterfeiters from removing the end user’s high quality product with a low, cost poor quality substitute. When the tape is removed the factory seal is destroyed which indicates that the box was opened prior to arrival at its final destination.  

Scara Robot Picks & Places Automotive Electronic Component

EPSON Scara robot unloads electronic key fobs from a tray and loads them onto a dial index table. When the assembly is completed the robot picks up the part and places it on an finished parts tray.  

Multiple EPSON Robots Controlled by One Controller

A very impressive demonstration of a single point of control with multiple robots. A single RC520 PC-based controller is operating 13 axes of motion including a 6-axis Pro Six robot, a 4-axis E2S Scara robot mounted to a linear slide and a 2-axis cartesian EZ Module.  

Scara Robots Load & Unload Electronic Test Equipment

Two EPSON scara robots load & unload electronic circuit devices into test fixtures. Tested parts are sorted PASS – FAIL. Parts that FAIL are sorted by failure type.  

Load Pharmaceutical Blister Packs (E2L853S Scara)

A vision guided EPSON scara robot picks up soft tablets from a tray and places them into blister packs.  

Pick & Place Compact Discs (TT8550 Scara)

EPSON scara robot helps in the manufacturing of compact discs.  

Pick & Place Coils (E2L653 Scara)

EPSON scara robots picks up coils from an input tray. The coil is transferred between multiple stations for processing and then set on an outgoing tray.  

Quality Assurance of Cylinder Locks (PS3L 6-axis)

This machine built by Huf Tool measures, records and arranges the results for six different key types for the manufacturing company Carl Eduard Schulte GmbH. In cooperation with fully integrated Epson vision processing, an Epson six axis robot runs the whole management of the supplied keys within the cell.  

Apply Labels to Products in a Warehouse (E2S453SM Scara)

EPSON scara robot applies postage & tracking labels to products moving on a conveyor. Because there are thousands of different items being processed a robot was needed to position the labels so they are placed on the correct location.  

Assemble Consumer Electronic Device (E2S553S Scara)

An EPSON scara robot assembles a DVD player.  

Deburring Ceramic Parts (ES553 Scara)

EPSON scara robot picks up part and moves it around a deburring tool.  

Solar Panel Assembly Demo (RS3-351SSR Scara)

EPSON RS3 High Performance SCARA Plus robot simulates picking and placing solar panels at a show in Germany.  

Unload Injection Molding Machine & Assemble Parts (PS3L 6-axis)

EPSON Pro Six robot mounted to the stationary platen reaches into a horizontal injection molding and unloads the parts. The next step is taking the parts to a secondary post molding operation that inserts o-rings. The final step is dropping the parts into a box.  

Vision Guided Part Singulation (G6-451S Scara)

Three different types of small, wafer-like workpieces are running together on a conveyor. EPSON Vision Guide detects the type, location, and rotational position of each workpiece. Robot #1 sorts the workpieces as it places them on a second conveyor. Robot #2 packs the workpieces in trays. No other positioning device or loading pallet are necessary.  

Load & Unload Grinding Machine (TT8800 Scara)

EPSON scara robot picks up blank knife blades and loads them into a grinding machine. The operation starts with the robot placing side A in a fixture. After this side is ground, the robot transfers the part to a different location where side B is machined. Upon completion of both sides the robot places the finished part in a bin.  

Force Sensing to Put Lid on Bottle (G6-453S)

EPSON scara robot uses force sensing feedback to place a lid on a plastic bottle. The force sensing is used to make sure that the lid does not exceed a predetermined rotational torque value. This is important because the manufacturer wants ti make sure that the bottle is tightly sealed but still can be easily opened by the consumer.
