IX Super-Large
SCARA Robot
Belt Tracking and
Conveyor Accuracy
The IX Super Large SCARA Series boasts an arm length of 1200mm and a payload of 50kg, both of which are the largest among all SCARA robots. The long arm allows the IX to carry work parts over a wide range of up to 2400 mm.
 
The IX is also space-saving because its footprint is only one-eightieth that of a Cartesian robot having an equivalent range of operation.
 
  • Maximum Payload 50kg
  • Arm Length 1,200mm
  • Vertical Stroke 400mm
  • Standard Cycle Time 0.61 seconds
  • Collision Detection function
  • Battery-less Absolute Encoder as standard
Dorner’s precision conveyors ensure exact product location and position on a conveyor.

Belt tracking and conveyor accuracy greatly influences your overall efficiency and productivity. Many processes, such as labeling, printing, robotic pick-and-place and indexing depend on a product being in an exact location and position on a conveyor for a successful engagement.

WAGO TOPJOB® S 
Mini Terminal Blocks
High-performance,
Cost-Effective Grippers
WAGO has expanded their new TOPJOB® S Mini terminal block series to include a version for 12 AWG. This variant is able to operate at up to 600V and 20 A and has UL 1059 approval as well as AEx, ATEX, and IECEx for hazardous locations. 
 
Featuring industry-proven, Push-in CAGE CLAMP® connection technology with a size 60% smaller than the standard terminal blocks, these Mini terminal blocks are a perfect solution where space is limited or where use of DIN rail is not possible.
 
The TOPJOB® S Mini terminal blocks are available with open tool slot or easy-to-identify orange push buttons that can be easily actuated with any standard tool.
Schunk’s JGP-P grippers feature increased surface area providing up to 50% higher gripping force than its predecessor – and that's at the same size. These strong and cost0effective 2-finger parallel gripper is ideal for loading and unloading machine tools, assembly work, and pick & place tasks.
 
Robust T-slot guidance with longer base jaw guide allows for the use of gripper fingers that are 30 percent longer. 

No less than ten matching sensor systems enable a wide range of interrogation options, such as monitoring the stroke position or workpiece differentiation. Good or bad parts can be sorted quickly and reliably based on the dimensional deviations.
