ABOUT EPSON SPIDER About Epson The Epson Spider Comparison Epson Spider — SCARA robot Production philosophy Epson Spider RS3 and RS4 Technical data Epson, a subsidiary of Seiko Corporation, launched the rst robots in the 1980ies. Those were used for precise and fast assembly of Seiko watches. Soon Epson industrial robots and controllers started to conquer markets all over the world. Today, Epson Factory Automation is one of the leading companies producing high-quality robot systems with branches on all ve continents. • In-house Research and Development department for automation processes •...

EPSON ROBOT SYSTEMS — TO SPEED UP YOUR PRODUCTION RUN Our robots palletise, saw, mill, drill, grind, mount, move and assemble. They work precisely and at breathtaking speed in these and many other applications — often up to 24 hours a day. As one of the pioneers in robotics we know exactly what the main feature of the combination of kinematics and intelligent control must be apart from speed and precision: Reliability! That is because the standstill of an installation resulting in a loss of production is expensive, very expensive. Therefore to us, innovation means more than just up-to-date...

SPIDER — THE ROBOT REVOLUTION BY EPSON Like a spider in its web ... thanks to unique engineering, the Epson Spider is not only extremely compact and incredibly fast-moving. It also makes 100% use of the maximum envelope of its arm length and thus provides you with all you need for economical production. The Epson Spider is a new species of SCARA robots. These 4-axis robots designed like a human arm work on horizontal planes and are ideal for fast pick-and-place applications and assembly processes. Apart from that, the Spider combines all advantages of the high-performance Epson SCARA...

THE EPSON CONCEPT: TAKE IT ONE STEP FURTHER We learn from the development experience and from more than 30 years of operation of industrial robots as well as from our customers’ specic requirements. Every day. What is there to optimise? How can we improve the economic viability of your production cell? Can we speed up the process without loss of reliability? These questions are the basis for new developments. However, the best solutions often are just so very simple — such as with the Epson Spider. Its design is as unique as advantageous. The perfect design for increased productivity at...

EPSON SPIDER: SAVES TIME, SPACE AND MONEY Comparison of Epson Spider and SCARA robot Cycle time Classic SCARA robots work with external orientation. The arm must be completely extended to change orientation. With the Epson Spider, however, cycle times can be considerably reduced thanks to “short-cut motion”. Internal orientation and overlapping envelopes allow to program the optimal motion for a specic application. Envelope Compared to a SCARA robot, the Epson Spider multiplies its continuous, rectangular envelope by 5. To cover the same envelope, a SCARA robot with a considerably longer...

THE NEW PRODUCTION PHILOSOPHY: ECONOMICAL AND FLEXIBLE Thanks to its unique motion dynamics with short travel distances and to its low deadload, systems can be designed and operated saving resources. With a cell design based on an innovative production philosophy, the Epson Spider offers unprecedented economical benets. No expensive idling of systems, quick conversion of production lines for new products, exible adaptation of the system to market sales, easy connection to existing work cells ... what sounds like a wish list for increased economic viability becomes reality in a cell design...

THE DREAM TEAM: EPSON SPIDER RS3 AND RS4 Both Epson Spiders are equal in design and thus offer the same benets; they only differ in reach and payload. The Epson Spider RS4 has “more strength in the arm” and a longer reach. The Epson Spider RS4 can thus carry heavier loads and is perfectly suitable for applications with a larger envelope. Payload: 3 kilograms Reach: 350 mm Max. square envelope: 495 x 495 mm Max. motion range (Ø): 700 mm Pallet size: e.g. 400 x 600 mm Payload: 4 kilograms Reach: 550 mm Max. square envelope: 777 x 777 mm Max. motion range (Ø): 1100 mm Pallet size: e.g. 600 x...

Up-to-date servo technology Spider — specic advantages Like all other Epson kinematics, the two Spiders are also equipped with most up-to-date servo technology. In combination with the special Epson Spider design, cycle times are achieved that you could only dream about. We get to the point fast: Smart Motion Smart Motion is the revolutionary motor management by Epson used in all Epson robot systems. At low vibration, Epson robots reach the end position much faster and much more precisely. Optimum positioning, short cycle times and increased path accuracy — be on the economical side with...

TECHNICAL DATA Like all other Epson robot systems, Epson Spiders Scope of delivery also feature maximum speed, precision and reliability. • Epson robot and controller With a guaranteed repeatability of 10 μm, they are • 70 g grease for shaft suitable for applications of particularly high demands • 1 emergency stop connector with respect to point and path accuracy. • 1 set user connector • 1 back-up disc for the robot controller • 1 Epson RC+ program CD High-quality components ensure longevity and high availability. The design incl. simulator also focuses on reliability — starting from...
