With 430,000 units installed worldwide, YASKAWA is one of the biggest manufacturers of industrial robots. Besides application-oriented variants such as welding, palletizing, painting and handling robots

Individual packaging is in vogue – in the brewing industry, too. For automated empties handling, however, this diversity means demanding requirements that are often newly introduced.

Easy handling of heavy loads

The Motoman GP series comprises compact and extremely efficient robots for high-speed joining, packaging and general handling applications. In time for Automatica, Yaskawa has widened its range by adding several new handling

The Red Dot jury has made its decision: After all of the products submitted were tested and assessed individually in the course of an evaluation process spanning several days, the handling robot Motoman GP8 by Yaskawa received the distinction “Red Dot”. T

Small, but it packs a punch

For Automatica Yaskawa has augmented its Motoman robot portfolio with what is now its smallest model: with a range of 350 mm the new MotoMINI can handle a payload of 500 g.

As a lightweight, high-speed robot the compact 6-axi

AAF required a solution to automate the welding of large hoppers. These hoppers needed to be welded both internally and externally and therefore a solution was required that could reach practically any point on a part requiring welding and that

At Automatica, Yaskawa will be displaying a further development of the collaborative Motoman HC10 robot. The HC10DT (DT stands for “Direct Teach”) model variant can optionally be programmed directly via the robot arm. This “easy teaching” is made possible

Robot programming now with EtherCAT connection

The software interface MotoLogix enables Yaskawa Motoman robots to be quickly and easily programmed and controlled via PLC in the standard IEC-61131 environment. Now Yaskawa has broadened the spectrum of sup

El robot Motoman HC10 es el primer robot colaborativo introducido por Yaskawa fuera de Japón. HC es sinónimo de “Colaboración Humana”. El prototipo, con un rango de movimiento de 1,2 m y una carga máxima de 10 kg, ha sido certificado de acuerdo con la esp

Besides standardized interfaces and the networked management of systems and processes, the automated manufacture of a single product according to individual specifications is also a key requirement of Industrie 4.0. YASKAWA is facing these challenges with
