Overview
Orbit type SCARA robot from Yamaha's YK-XG Series.
Flagship features
- Unique 'orbit' design allows the arm to pass under its own axis, enabling work in very narrow spaces (down to 500mm width)
- Uses a resolver (magnetic position sensor) instead of optical encoders for higher reliability and resistance to harsh environments
- Dedicated installation stand option simplifies setup without need for strength calculations
- Cycle time improved 36% over previous Yamaha SCARA models
- Case study shows successful deployment in smartphone component assembly in space-constrained production lines
- Competitive differentiator: combines speed of delta robot with accuracy of SCARA, in a very compact vertical envelope
