Epson Robots Brings Advanced Vision and Force Guidance Technologies to the Battery Show | Robotics
Epson C4L Long Reach 6-Axis Robot
At the Battery Show this week, Epson Robots will be showcasing robots for the factory automation industry that include all the latest advances in robot design and performance, including integrated Vision guided battery load and Force guidance based battery test applications. The Battery Show covers today’s emerging advanced battery technology for the automotive, portable electronics, medical technology, military and telecommunications, and utility and renewable energy support sectors.
This year, RoboBusiness includes four conferences to make it easier for you to find the information you need most. Whether you are involved in running a robotics business, designing products, or implementing robotics solutions in your company – we have a conference to meet your needs.
The C4L provides a slimLine design for maximum flexibility along with long reach and up to a 4 kg payload. It includes a compact wrist pitch design to allow easier access into tight work areas.
The C4L robot workcell will show battery pack testing using Epson Robots’ Force Guide product, which provides integrated high-precision force feedback. The robot will test rotational torque values for assembled lug nuts and linear force values through wire pull testing.
Proper connection of wires to batteries is critical for proper battery power in automobiles and other devices. Integrated testing as a part of the assembly process can catch quality issues early in the manufacturing process.
The C4L is ideally suited for the lab automation, medical, consumer, food, automotive, electronics, PC peripheral, semiconductor, plastics, appliance, and aerospace industries, where it can be used for a wide variety of applications such as part load/unload, pallet and tray transfers, kitting, assembly, and many more.
The Battery Show takes place from Sep. 11-13, 2018, at the Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi, Mich. The Epson Solutions Showcase will be at Booth 1110.
