Dobot Robotics (Shenzhen, China) released the CR20A collaborative robot based on a new generation technology architecture. The robot features a 20 kg (44 lbs.) payload capacity, a 1700 mm (67 inches) working radius, and plus or minus 0.1 mm (0.004 inches) repeatability. It is suitable for packaging, palletizing, and large-sized workpiece machining and long-seam welding in complex scenarios.
Vibration is reduced by 50% compared to previous models during high-speed stops. In palletizing applications, the robot is capable of stacking 7 items per minute and is compatible with most standard, European, and American pallet sizes, with a maximum pallet dimension of 1219 mm x 1219 mm (48 inches x 48 inches).
The system features an electromagnetic brake protection mechanism, which automatically engages in the event of a power outage, effectively preventing the robot’s end of arm tooling from falling, and ensures no displacement occurs during start up and shut down. The CR20A also includes load auto-detection to avoid problems caused by significant load deviations.
The CR20A has a dual end effector connector design, allowing it to connect directly to multiple end effectors and be used with a wide range of third party accessories. The system supports ethernet/IP and Profinet communication. It connects with other automation systems via PLC, and has 24 channels of universal IO ports that support PNP/NPN switching.
