SM3 X-Series

High-performance robot that can combine the typical productivity of side-entry robots with versatility features that are revolutionary for this category. Its unprecedented architecture, with a solid anchoring to the ground and plenty of travel in all three directions, is a change in the paradigm of flexibility of use for side-entry robots. Its structure is more rigid and massive than that of its little brother, the SM2, and it has a double support column and even longer travels. This means the possibility to run fast cycles with higher payloads.

Simply all in one

SM3 X-Series requires no external palletisation axles or their relative pick-up hands, typically present in traditional side-entry robots. Its long travels on all three axles, together with the built-in wrist, allow the robot to carry out all pick-up, drop-down and palletisation operations with a single hand, in a sequential manner. Programming and managing the robots is extremely simple, avoiding the parallel coordination of an external palletisation axle.

Say good-bye to issues involving transferring between pick-up hands

Transferring parts between different pick-up hands is a very delicate operation, especially in multi-cavity applications, and loss of alignment and piece-dropping may occur. The presence of a single pick-up hand eliminates this problem at the root, preventing possible downtimes and consequent loss of productivity.

Quick inversion of pick-up side

In traditional side-entry robots, the position of the palletisation axle strongly determines the pick-up side on the fixed or on the moving surface of the press. The absence of palletisation axles, together with a tilting wrist, allows the SM3 X-Series robot to quickly invert the pick-up side on the fixed or on the moving surface, resulting in high flexibility in productions with change of mould.

No more difficulty centring on different moulds and presses

The long travel on all three axles provides maximum centring capacity and the possibility to re-use the robot on presses and moulds of different dimensions.

Version with double transversal arm: even more functional

SM3 X-Series is available in a version with double transversal arm (SM3-D), allowing for its use with particular stack moulds and providing advantages in IML applications with reduced press opening travel.

Self-lubricating brake pads that require no maintenance in the long run

SM3 X-Series is equipped with self-lubricating brake pads with ball recirculation on tempered steel prismatic guides. This system allows them to work without the need to lubricate the guides for more than 40,000 km, therefore saving a lot in terms of maintenance and of machine downtime.

Wrist with pneumatic C axle, with a maximum capacity of 12 kg

The robot is equipped with a wrist with a pneumatic C axle that allows it to deposit parts picked from the mould on to a flat surface, by choosing from two programmed positions (vertical/horizontal). The maximum capacity is 12 kg.
