TM Robotics has launched the Toshiba Machine TH350A, the smallest robot in its class, with high speed, high payload and built-in programmable controller.

Arm lengths of just 350mm and a repeatability of ±0.01mm mean that the TH350A is best suited to applications where precision and accuracy are paramount. It has a maximum payload of 3kg. When carrying a payload of just 1kg it can deliver cycle times of 0.41 seconds. In addition, the robot is suitable for use in low pollutant manufacturing environments.

The TH350A's built-in controller can be programmed using Scol, a proprietary language similar to Basic. As an option it can feature devicenet or Profi-bus connectivity. A further option is the Toshiba machine teach pendant, an external switch pad that can be used to direct the robot through a sequence of movements.

Weighing in at 14kg with a maximum height including the cable harness of 635cm the robot is suitable for use in very small cells.
