IAI's New SCARA Robot IXP PowerCON

This post is brought to you by IAI.

Cost-Effective SCARA Robot Pulse Motor Type IXP Series

All models come standard with battery-less absolute encoders.

More Affordable Due to Pulse Motors

By adopting pulse motors…
…the IXP costs around 1/2 a conventional model.
* Compared against an IAI robot based on an arm length of 350mm.

The IXP achieves a payload equivalent to that of a conventional model by adopting high-output drivers.

All Models Come Standard with Battery-less Absolute Encoders

All IXP models come standard with battery-less absolute encoders that does not require batteries. Since battery replacement is no longer necessary, maintenance man-hours are reduced.

Advantages of Battery-less Absolute Encoders

The machine will not stop due to battery errors (low voltage, etc.)
No cost of battery replacement
No need for absolute reset or other physical tasks associated with battery replacement

Lighter than a Conventional Model

The robot weighs approx. 30% less.
(Compared to: IX-NNN3515)

The lightweight robot can be easily assembled into your equipment.

Added 3-axis Specification & 4-axis* Gripper Specification

The 3-axis specification has no rotational axis for greater allowable inertial load moment. It can be combined with a dedicated gripper to constitute a transfer robot with ease.

* The gripper type has four axes including three SCARA robot axes and one gripper axis.
