THE R-SERIES
INTO THE FUTURE
Kawasaki Robotics invents itself
anew. As innovative robot generation, the R-SERIES meets
the increasing demands of its
customers.
state-of-the-art robot technology«
An extremely compact and light-weight design
forms the basis for high speeds 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 reliably meet the demands of the most varied
application elds - now and in the near & far future.
High speed
1.
Maximum acceleration and speed through the consistent utilization of highoutput motors following an
innovative and light-weight design. The acceleration
is automatically matched to the carried load and
position of the robot. In this way, the best possible
performance and optimum cycle times are granted
and achieved.
2. Torque
Extensive gripper designs and bulky workpieces
cause no problem at all. This leaves more room for
creative solutions.
3. Workspace
The large reach in the individual weight classes
allow for high exibility in practice.
4. Protection
Double sealings at the hand axes 4 - 6 make the
robot qualify for protection class IP67. Axes 1 - 3
fulll the requirements of protection class IP65 (optional: IP67).
5. Functions
Signal lines and air hoses integrated in the robot
arm allow for the direct connection of e.g. grippers
without additional wiring through or at the robot
arm. Additionally required lines or hoses may of
course be assembled at the provided fastening
points in a »simple and friendly« way.

The E-Controller – technically mature, easy to operate
and powerful
Compact, upgradeable and user-friendly
A maximum of 10 external axes may be integrated,
up to three of which in the controller housing (E4x).
All established bus systems (Interbus, Probus, ProNet…) are supported. The integrated Soft PLC may
be edited via Teach Pendant or even more comfortably at the PC (option). Custom-tailored user interfaces may be programmed and used for the simpli-
ed control of the robot and also peripheral devices.
Motor voltage ON and program start may be activa-
ted directly via the manual control unit. The parallel
display of two information screens (e.g. position and
signal data) facilitates the process control.

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 proces-
sor design and powerful components. 8 MB RAM
(80,000 steps) and USB interface as standard.
Maintenance
»Simple and friendly« – Due to the optimized modular conguration 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.
Note: Not all Options can be combined.

Cautions to be taken to ensure safety
For those persons involved with the operation / service of your system, including Kawasaki Robot, they must
strictly observe all safety regulations at all times. They should carefully read the Manuals and other related
safety documents.
Products described in this catalogue are general industrial robots. Therefore, if a customer wishes to use the
robot for special purposes, which might endanger operators or if the robot has any problems please contact
us. We will be pleased to help you.
BE CAREFUL: All photos illustrated in this catalogue are frequently taken after removing safety fences and
other safety devices stipulated in the safety regulations from the Robot operation system.
