Yaskawa Motoman’s GP70L extended-reach robot handles press and machine tending

The extended-reach GP70L robot from Yaskawa Motoman is suitable for material handling, press tending, machine tending, and logistic processes. The 6-axis robot features a 2,732-mm horizontal reach, 4,715-mm vertical reach, and 0.05-mm repeatability. A 70-kg payload enables the use of a variety of tooling and sensors for diverse application requirements.

High moment-of-inertia ratings enable the handling of large and heavy payloads, while fast axis speeds and acceleration capabilities reduce cycle time for increased production output, the company reports. A reduced-interference design allows easy access to parts in tight spots and facilitates close-proximity placement of robots for high-density workcells. A wide wrist motion range eliminates potential interference with fixtures.
