Taking Advantage of ServoBelt™ When Designing Robot Transfer Units
Robot transfer units (RTUs) are gaining ground — literally — in many industrial applications. These sophisticated motion systems transport articulated arm and collaborative robots (cobots) along a linear path, adding a seventh axis of movement and extending the robot’s work envelope. Thanks to this increased mobility, the robot can tend to multiple workstations or machines across wide swaths of the factory floor, unlocking a number of benefits.
