B-Serie

»Simple and friendly«
INTO THE FUTURE

The B-series combines the
Z-series and the R-series with
innovative technology and pre­sents itself as a spot-welding
robot of the latest generation.

»40 years of experience and
state-of-the-art robot techno­logy«

An extremely compact and light-weight design
the basis for high speed and rigidity as well as
an enormous reach.

»Your goal is our task«

It was Kawasaki‘s intelligence and exibility which
made them build the most powerful robots in their
class. Combined with a high-end control system,
they meet the demands of the most varied applica­tions – now and in the future.

THE B-SERIES

1. Maximum Benet

Minimised net weight and high performance, maxi­mum reduction of vibration, and use of heavy-duty
motors makes this robot a champion sprinter. It
excels with maximum power over short distances,
especially as it is demanded in spot welding.

2. Synergy

Based on existing robot series, the B-Series is the
synergy of proven technologies. The sleek R-series
design combined with the robustness of the
Z-series and the use of other proven Kawasaki so­lutions makes this robot series particularly effective.

3. Design

This series continues Kawasaki’s consistent aim of
building space-saving robots. Kawasaki’s success

is evident at rst glance of its BX robots, providing

maximum payload capacity with minimum space
requirements.

4. Intelligent Solution

The „hollow wrist“ allows the internal routing of
cable assemblies. This signicantly increases dura­bility, eliminating undesirable interference contours.

CONTROLLER

1. Control

The E-Controller as consistent further development
of the existing control concept has been developed
in close cooperation with Kawasaki‘s customers.
In this way, a state-of-the-art high-end product has
been created - offering the familiar ease of operati­on and exceptionally high power.

2. Compact and upgradeable

A maximum of 10 external axes may be integrated,
up to three of which in the controller housing (E4x).

All established bus systems (Interbus, Probus,
ProNet…) are supported. The integrated Soft PLC

may be edited via Teach Pendant or even more
comfortably at the PC. Custom-tailored user inter­faces may be programmed and used for the simpli-

ed control of the robot and also peripheral devices.

3. User-friendly system

Motor power ON and program start may be activa­ted directly via the manual control unit. The parallel
display of two information screens (e.g. position
and signal data) facilitates the process control.

4. Functions

Integrated software functions support the most va­rious applications. Through individual combination
and programming, highly complex systems may be
designed and realized. (e.g. Soft Absorber, Collisi­on Detection, Conveyor Tracking and many more).

5. System

Ultra-fast execution of programs, loading and sto­ring processes as well as a precise continuous-path
control and much more thanks to the up-to-date
processor design and powerful components. 8 MB
RAM (80,000 steps) and USB interface as stan­dard.

6. Maintenance

»Simple and friendly« Due to the optimized modular

conguration of the Kawasaki control, maintenance

work is exceptionally user-friendly. Furthermore,
integrated service and diagnosis tools guarantee
increased safety in operation. Remote diagnosis via
Ethernet is also included in the standard package.
