They are available in table or ceiling mount configurations, and 210 mm and 410 mm quills lengths.
Some advantages of the food-grade robots include:
- Ideal for use in food and beverage packaging and processing applications
- Good seal compatibility helps reduce potential oil leakage
- Excellent water resistance
- Ability to work with primary (unpackaged) or secondary (packaged) food products
- Handles payloads of up to 15kg
The i4H is available in a wide range of configurations to fit any work cell. OMRON’s EtherCAT connectivity enables synchronization between other automation devices. This facilitates advanced processes that require high accuracy and demanding throughput, as well as ensured quality control with vision integration.
