CARTESIAN ROBOTS:

**(Circular interpolation means that if you can draw a line in your CAD program, you can follow it precisely with these Panasonic robot cartesian arms, at speeds up to 8 ips, to 0.0008" repeatability and place parts, apply adhesive, or cut materials with a laser to a pattern drawn in your CAD system.)

Applications in Manufacturing, Prototyping and Science:
Laser Cutting, Router Cutting,
3D Machining,
Fine Pitch Pick and Place,
Robotic Assembly
Adhesive application,
Biotechnology automation cells at VERY LOW COST.

Fine Pitch Pick and Place and Robotic Assembly: Except for incorporating DCPM motors instead of brushless motors, and 2000 count rotary encoders instead of 8000 count encoders, what we are offering are almost the same arms as in Panasonic fine pitch Surface Mount (SMD) pick and place electronics assembly machines which sell for $250K, and up. Please note that without modification, but with appropriate mounting, these arms are suitable for building pick and place machines with repeatability of up to 0.001 inch.

Controllers to Choose and Use: One advantage of these arms is that they incorporate classical motor-encoder servo systems and consequently, may easily be connected to a number of commercial controllers, including:
Adept: This is the up-and-coming, though expensive, controller for manufacturing sites. It smoothly integrates motion, vision and tactile accessories within a large operating system called V+. Entry price is about $20K.
Delta-Tau: If you are the all-around smart engineer and want to do your own applications, you can get into a four axis version of this controller for about $2500 , a PC, amplifiers and wiring. These controllers are available in 8 axis versions and are versatile, including embedded PLCC.
Panasonic controllers include extremely robust amplifiers which may be used with external controllers if desired. The command set is simple, easy to master, and the hardware is reliable like nothing else.
Fanuc: Rock solid products and support also starting at about $40K. Watch the turf fight unfold between Delta Tau and Fanuc ! Delta Tau sells many cards into Japan.

Programming: Although the Panasonic programming language for PanaDac Controllers is a "Basic like" language, and easily learned, we can refer you to engineers in New York and California who will support your programming effort if you feel it is required.

Reliability: PanaRobo reliability is un-matched. Incorporating one of the most tested mechanical designs available, these arms feature, for example, ball screws which practically never wear out. Some machines sold by Panasonic have been in use for 3 shifts on a continuous basis for 10 years without a ball screw replacement.

Condition: These Panasonic Cartesian Robots are in Quite excellent condition - used exclusively in a clean room environment. Manufactured between 1986 and 1994, all have been attentively serviced and will provide decades of use.

• We let our imaginations wander - we think that this machine coupled with a high rpm router would be marvelous for precision wood carving in 3D, and for mold-making. Bravo for the mind, but we'd like to help someone do it. We'll even go partners with the right soul in the right location. We dare you to come and take a look - and go away without a deal. Dare or no dare, you are welcome to visit.
