COMAU & KEBA – the perfect combination.

KEBA offers KeMotion which is a complete solution for robot and machine automation. PLC, motion, robotics, drive technology, safety technology and HMI are all combined in a compact system.

This is the ideal basis for implementing all automation tasks on a single common hardware and software platform.  The Comau robotic demo cell features a Comau Rebel-S robot, a 4-axis SCARA robot that is available in 5 different models with a payload of 6kg and 3 different reaches. 

These robots can be mounted in a variety of positions and they utilize spacers - a simple, yet innovative solution that extends the robot’s reach.  At this event, the Rebel-S will be demonstrating a pick & place operation, showing its compactness and flexibility.

Benefit from the perfect combination between COMAU and KEBA and enjoy all the advantages!

The KeTop T150 has a capacitive touchscreen that can be operated as a true multi-touch and thereby scores with its intuitive usability, maximum ergonomics and best user experience.

 

When you get a chance to walk the exhibit hall floor yourself, what is it you will be most interested to see? 

We are interested to visit the Future Innovators Robotics Showcase.  Prompting robotics in the next generation is a key to the continued growth of automation and robotics in all industries. 

 

The factory floor is undertaking rapid advancements, be it automation, robotics, machine vision or data.  The process of packaging is a huge part for many manufacturers, give us an idea on how your company and product is being utilized now in the smart factory.
