Versatile, High Payload PL800 Palletizing Robot is Well-Suited for a Range of Industries
Yaskawa Motoman's newest robot model in its PL-series line, the PL800 offers an 800 kg payload capacity and is ideal for a wide variety of palletizing applications, layer picking, and other logistical tasks for end-of-line or distribution automation.
Dayton, OH - The newest robot in the PL-series line, the PL800 features an 800 kg payload capacity and is ideal for a variety of palletizing applications, layer picking, and other logistical tasks for end-of-line or distribution automation.
Highly reliable, fast axis speeds and acceleration reduce cycle time for increased production throughput. Offering a 3,159 mm horizontal reach and 3,024 mm vertical reach, its large work envelope and robust payload capacity help to efficiently load/unload pallets, easily handling full layers or a variety of containers including boxes, bags, bottles and cases.
Parallel-link structure provides strength, rigidity and stabilization of heavy loads. The T-axis features a 100 mm pass-through to facilitate easy connections to the end-of-arm tool, as well as high allowable moment of inertia to ensure unbalanced loads are handled effectively without compromising speed or performance.
Installation is quick and efficient. A single cable is all that is needed to connect the manipulator to the controller, resulting in easy setup and reduced expenses for maintenance and spare parts inventory. Airlines and cables are routed internally from the base to the end-of-arm tool to maximize reliability, and a cable installation tube facilitates fieldbus routing to the upper arm and/or gripper.
The PL800 offers an IP54-rated wrist and body as standard and can be floor-mounted. The robot is controlled by the high-performance YRC1000 controller that is built to a global standard and does not require a transformer for input voltages ranging from 380VAC to 480VAC. With a highly compact cabinet (598 W x 490 H x 427 D mm), the YRC1000 uses a lightweight teach pendant with intuitive programming.
The PL800 is available with Yaskawa's PalletSolver® software for fast and easy offline creation of palletizing patterns for virtually any mix of SKUs, enabling faster workcell deployment for even the most complex patterns.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
