igus 7th Axis: Expanding Robotic Workspace for Enhanced Flexibility

The igus 7th axis provides versatile and flexible automation solutions by significantly increasing the working range of robots, up to 4 times larger than their standard workspace. In this application, a collaborative robot equipped with the ZLW-20200 toothed belt axis was simulated, demonstrating its ability to pick up packages and place them onto an assembly line for subsequent processing steps. The linear slide enables precise back-and-forth movements, allowing the robot to repeatedly handle new packages with high efficiency. With a maximum speed of 0.3 m/s and a repeatability of ±0.3 mm, the axis ensures smooth and accurate operations, ideal for dynamic production environments.

What is the Application?

The system automates package handling and transportation, optimizing workflows across assembly lines and logistics processes.

What are the Advantages of the Solution?

  • Extended Workspace: Expands robot range for broader operational flexibility.

  • Improved Productivity: Handles more packages and tasks in a single cycle.

  • High Precision: Ensures accuracy with ±0.3 mm repeatability.

What are the Advantages of the Axis?

The igus 7th axis delivers:

  • Seamless Integration: Compatible with collaborative robots for advanced workflows.

  • Reliable Performance: Maintains consistent speed and precision during operations.

  • Customizable Use: Adaptable for various industrial applications.

Transforming Automation with the igus 7th Axis

Integrating the 7th axis from igus with collaborative robots demonstrates how workspace enhancements can revolutionize workflows. Offering precision, flexibility, and improved output, this solution ensures efficient and scalable operations for modern manufacturing and logistics environments.
