The IRB 910SC from ABB is a highly capable Selective Compliance Articulated Robot Arm (SCARA) designed to deliver fast, cost-effective and accurate performance. Its standout feature is its ability to operate within a confined footprint, making it ideal for Small Parts Assembly, Material Handling, and parts inspection. The IRB 910SC comes in three configurations with different linking arm lengths, each with a maximum payload of 6 kg and individual reaches of 450 mm, 550 mm, and 650 mm.

This tabletop-mountable SCARA family is designed for various general-purpose applications that require fast, repeatable and articulate point-to-point movements such as tray kitting, component placement, machine loading/unloading and assembly. Its rapid cycle times, high precision, and superior motion control make it an ideal solution for small part assembly applications, laboratory automation, and prescription drug dispensing.

In addition to Small Parts Assembly, Material Handling, and parts inspection, the IRB 910SC is ideal for screw driving, inserting, assembly/disassembly, mounting, parts transfer, parts handling, sorting, packaging, product inspection, testing, and quality control. The IRB 910SC is also known for its ease of integration, custom interfaces, and modular design, providing a perfect fit for various industries such as Automotive, Electronics, Aerospace and Defense, and more.

The IRB 910SC's customer benefits include short cycle times, high precision, and superb reliability due to the reuse and standard proven components. Its modular design allows easy maintenance and customization, and its tabletop mountable feature ensures that it can be installed in various locations. With its outstanding features and capabilities, the IRB 910SC is a unique option for industrial automation that delivers fast, reliable, and cost-effective performance.

The Brooks Automation PF3400 is a collaborative four-axis SCARA robot. It is designed with safety features that allow it to achieve fast speeds and accelerations while limiting collision forces. The PF3400 can perform pick-and-place tasks at high speeds and is suitable for a variety of applications where speed and safety are important considerations.

The PreciseFlex 3400 is the world's first four-axis SCARA robot, designed to provide fast, safe, and efficient operations. With its collaborative design, the PreciseFlex 3400 is able to achieve speeds and accelerations that are unmatched by other collaborative robots, while still limiting collision forces. The robot is equipped with a maximum horizontal reach of 300 mm (1ft) and a maximum vertical reach of 25 mm (1inch), and is capable of performing pick-and-place cycle times of 1.4 seconds, which is comparable to the speed of human operators. Additionally, the PreciseFlex 3400 has a maximum payload capacity of 3 kg and limits free space collision forces to under 100 N, making it the fastest and safest robot in its class. The robot's controller and connectivity options are also user-friendly, allowing for easy setup and programming through a web interface or advanced programming language.
