October 17th, 2012 — Mitsubishi Electric Automation released its RH-3SxHR robot that delivers improved throughput, superior positioning and a smaller footprint. The RH-3SxHR is a ceiling-mounted SCARA robot designed to maximize speed for picking and handling light-weight parts.
Easy to install, this robot is available in SD format, the traditional stand-alone configuration, and SQ format, the standard iQ-based configuration. Its compact design and overhead installation requires a smaller, less-expensive mounting structure, while its rigid construction provides improved strength and precision.
