MELFA RV-8CRL Robot Series
Maximum performance in minimum space
Mitsubishi Electric’s RV-CR robots’ structures feature minimal protrusions, reducing interference with surroundings during operation. They support optional MELFA SmartPlus functional enhancement.
- Maximum load capacity: 8kg
- Maximum reach radius: 931mm
- Environmental specifications: Oil mist (IP65)
- Robot controller: CR800-CVD
Slim and compact
A smooth, curved design complements the slim arm and compact joints.
High scalability
Supporting a wide variety of functions and options such as the tracking function, additional axis control, 2D vision sensor, force sensor, 3D vision sensor, MELFA Smart Plus, and network base card, MELFA RV-CR series are useful in various situations.
Lighter unit
RV-8/12CRL reduced unit weight thanks to their simplified drive system and optimized arm structure, resulting in enhanced load capacity.
MELFA RV-CR series robots are easy to integrate with automation cells and manufacturing equipment, and their slim structure makes them easy to handle.
Simple structure improves ease of maintenance
Beltless coaxial drive mechanism A coaxial mechanism without belts is used for transmission to each axis (excluding the J4 and J5 axes for RV-8CRL, and the J5 axes for RV-12CRL).
Simplification of the structure has improved transmission efficiency and reliability. The ease of maintenance has also improved by reducing the number of points for periodic belt inspections.
No backup battery
The use of the HK motor eliminates the need for a battery to back up the robot's internal encoder.
This eliminates the cost and effort of regular replacement as well as the risk of losing origin coordinate data due to battery failure.
