THE FLEXIBLE
HEAVY-DUTY ROBOTS
The Z-Series heavy-duty robots were developed using Kawasaki’s advanced
technology and extensive experience in automation. The robust low-maintenance
designs are directly responsible for improved production line efficiencies in
automotive and general industry applications.
ZXE130L
Payload 130 kg
Horizontal Reach 2,951 mm
Vertical Reach 4,015 mm
Repeatability ±0.3 mm
Maximum Linear Speed 2,500 mm/s
HIGH QUALITY & LOW-MAINTENANCE
The Z- Series Robots boast industry leading MTBF and
10,000 hour maintenance intervals, which translate to low
operating costs and the highest production efficiencies.
CYCLE TIME ADVANTAGE
The Z Robots along with the ultra high processing speed
capabilities of the Kawasaki E Controller can achieve
superior operating speeds. Add the high-speed option
package and cycle times can be reduced by up to 20% as
compared to previous models. Faster speeds translate to
shorter cycle times, resulting in maximum production.
WIDE WORK ENVELOPE
The Kawasaki Z Robot combines a long reach arm with
a minimal amount of dead space for the widest work
envelope in its class. In addition, the patented Kawasaki
Hybrid Link Configuration enables the arm to rotate back
over itself without having to rotate the base joint, thereby
improving efficiency and minimizing power consumption.
SPACE SAVING DESIGN WITH
INTEGRATED FEATURES
The small footprint of these high payload long reach robots
allows for installations in confined areas. The Z-Series
Robots are available with integrated pneumatic piping,
wiring, and fork lift pockets, limiting the amount of work
space required and minimizing potential interference.
Applications
• Assembly
• Dispensing
• Machine Tending
• Material Handling
• Material Removal
• Spot Welding
PROTECTION FROM
HARSH ENVIRONMENTS
Z-Series Robots can operate in some of the harshest
environments due to the Kawasaki sealed arm design.
The wrist portion of the robot has an Ingress Protection
classification of IP67, while the other areas of the arm are
rated at IP65. Robot maintenance due to contamination can
be eliminated.
ARM ID MEMORY
Kawasaki’s Arm ID board enables the robot arm to be
interchanged with any E Controller. The ID board stores
all of the necessary servo encoder data. In the event of
a production emergency, the controller can quickly and
easily be replaced to allow for any service and maintenance
procedures to be performed. This feature greatly limits
potential system downtime.
UPGRADEABLE
The Z-Series robot line is manufactured using modular
components and a common software platform. This flexible
design allows some models to be modified to alter reach,
payload capacities and speed. Both hardware and software
alterations can easily be performed in the field. The ability
to change the robot characteristics provide for greater
flexibility to accommodate production and system changes.
