Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc. Releases Cost-Effective Industrial Robot
The RV-8CRL vertically articulated industrial robot arm is a high quality, low cost solution that offers versatility for a wide variety of applications.
Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc. has announced the release of its RV-8CRL industrial robot, which offers a high-quality solution at a lower price point, while not sacrificing on performance. Due to its smaller base size, expanded effective working area, and compatibility with safety intelligence components, RV-8CRL is extremely versatile in its applications, including pick and place, inspection, and general assembly.
The RV-8CRL is designed for OEMs and end users with a focus on easy implementation, robust safety options, and a reduction in downtime and maintenance. The robot's internal wiring and piping makes the robot easier to install, while its IP65 rating makes it "dust tight" and protected against water projected from a nozzle, widening application suitability. RV-8CRL also features auxiliary components for safety, such as MELFA Safe Plus. This component, using additional sensors, will reduce speed and limit the range of robots up to a full stop when people or objects are detected in close proximity to the robot. In addition, RV-8CRL's batteryless internal encoders remove the need for battery backup, allowing it to maintain the same settings without the battery.
"We are excited to introduce RV-8CRL to the industrial robot marketplace," said Scott Strache, product manager at Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc. "It features quality, performance, and compatibility wrapped into a package that reduces maintenance and operating costs, all while backed by a three year on-site warranty."

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.
