High accuracyHigh repeatability ensures accurate pick & place operation and high productivity.

High-density layoutThe YF002N, with its more compact structure and smaller footprint, enables the high-density layout of multiple robots. The lighter body can also be installed on a cantilever mount.

Readily compatible with the Vision systemThe series can offer high-speed, high-precision, and safe transfer in combination with a visual sensing system. The YF002N’s top mounting base is provided with a hollow space at the center for installing a camera.

Wash-downs with acid or alkaline cleanser (For the YF003N)The arm is designed for wash-downs with acid or alkaline cleanser, thus assuring hygiene in production plants.

Use of food-safe grease and oil for food-processing machineryGrease and oil for food-processing machinery is used for moving parts to assure hygiene in case of unforeseeable accidents.

Easy maintenanceThe simple, center-drive shaftless design results in easy maintenance.The YF002N is designed so that the main parts can be exchanged in units, greatly facilitating the task of exchanging parts.

For speed up production lines –

The “Y series” high-speed pick & place robots are ideal for a wide range of applications, including food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics production lines, as well as the assembly and placement of electrical, electronic, and machine parts. The “Y series” includes two models: the YF003N, with a 3-kg payload capacity, and the YF002N with a 2-kg payload capacity. They are capable of high-speed motion over a wide range, which helps speed up production lines.

Comprehensive robotic solutions for picking, packing, and palletizing, allowing for the automation and streamlining of various processes that enable efficiencies

A wide range of variationsRobot end effectors are available in a wide range of variations to suit your needs.

Automation of simple tasksHigh-speed picking, placing, and packing of sweets, retort foods, frozen foods, and other foods on packing lines

High-speed placement and color identification of cosmetics and medical product containers on filling lines

Placing of packaged instant food and retort-food trays on sterilized lines

Sorting and placing of products based on camera inspection resultsAfter inspecting the products transferred by the conveyor, such as wafers for solar cells, by an inspection camera, sort and place the products using picKstar.

Products judged as defective by inspection are ejected onto a reject table.

Y-series robots combined with the Vision system can accommodate a variety of product types, with no need to extensively modify the robot hardware.

K-ROSET lets you use your computer to program robots and perform simulations. High performance vision system, applied to various usages flexibly and immediately

Kawasaki vision soft

System configuration exampleFeaturesIt allows users to create models of multiple robot systems through the interactive input of parameters.The models help to verify the workload-sharing patterns between robots.(The verification using many robots needs the K-VAssist. Please contact our sales office for details.)

K-ROSET can reproduce practically the same operation trajectories as an actual robot.It can even simulate variations between supplied workpieces, enabling highly accurate cycle-time verification.

The camera’s field of vision can be checked by the virtual camera of K-ROSET.

Robot programs verified in simulations are compatible with real robot operations, with few modifications.(Making additional adjustments to the teaching points are required during installation.)

OS environment: Windows 7/10 (x86, x64])]On a 64-bit computer, it runs in the 32-bit compatible mode.

Specifications

External view & dimensions

E seriesKawasaki has incorporated more than 45 years of experience as a robot industry leader into the development of the most technically advanced controller available. The E Controller combines high performance, unprecedented reliability, a host of integrated features and simple operation, all in a compact design.

FeaturesCompactThe overall volume of the E Controller has been reduced compared with the previous model. The small footprint of this compact controller allows for installation in “high-density” applications. For further space saving options, an upright-position or stacked installation is possible, without impeding performance.

User-friendly operationThe easy-to-use teach pendant now incorporates motor power and cycle start at your fingertips. Multiple information screens can be displayed simultaneously. The intuitive teaching interface is simple to use.

Programming ease & flexibilityA rich set of programming functions come standard with the E Controller to support a wide range of applications. Functions can be combined and easily configured within a system to suit a particular application. Also, the powerful Kawasaki AS Programming Language provides sophisticated robot motion and sequence controls.

Advanced technologiesThe enhanced CPU capacity allows for more accurate trajectory control, faster program execution, and quicker loading and saving of files. In addition, memory has been expanded to meet the need for higher program storage capacity. The controller comes equipped with a USB port for external storage devices.

Easy maintenanceModular components with limited cables translate into easy diagnostics and maintenance. A host of maintenance functions are available, including self-diagnostics on hardware and application errors to minimize troubleshooting and reduce MTTR (Mean Time To Repair). Remote diagnostics via the web server function enables service support from anywhere in the world.

ExpandableNumerous communication fieldbuses are available for controlling peripheral devices. The Kawasaki K-Logic sequencer software can be combined with user customized interface panels on the teach pendant.
