November 1, 2012 - EPSON Robots introduces C3-V 6-Axis Robots. C3-V robots provide resistance to Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide (VHP) Gas, an aggressive chemical used in aseptic manufacturing environments.
The SlimLine body and compact wrist design of C3-V robots enable them to be easily installed in sealed environments such as inside an isolator. IP67-grade water/dust proofing allows C3-V robots to be cleaned and sterilized with aggressive chemical solutions or high temperature VHP and steam. Not only is the C3-V robot able to be thoroughly sterilized in such environments, but the robot can also be used as a handling device for presenting fixtures and components for cleaning to the VHP misting areas from many angles ensuring there are no neglected areas in the sterilization process. The effective utilization of the workspace allows for greater savings on cleaning consumables while eliminating potential contamination issues for consistency of quality in the aseptic space.
EPSON C3-V robots are available with either the True PC Based RC620+ controller or Micro PowerDrive RC180 controller. The EPSON True PC Based RC620+ controller provides the power and flexibility of an open architecture. The EPSON Micro PowerDrive RC180 controller provides a compact size, and reliable solution at low cost.
EPSON C3-V robots are able to meet the demanding space requirements in aseptic manufacturing environments by not only providing a small footprint solution with superior workspace usage but also flexibility and superior cycle rates throughout the manufacturing as well as VHP cleaning process.
