RK Rose+Krieger Modulzelle Enables Flexible SCARA Robot Integration Solutions
The RK Rose+Krieger modular cell offers a complete framework for SCARA or articulated arm robot integration into assembly workflows. Leveraging a proven profile and component set, the standardized design accommodates bespoke automation requirements. At its core, SensorBoard technology delivers automated workpiece carrier position detection with 0.01 millimeter accuracy. This direct sensor solution operates unaffected by ambient lighting, dirt, or dust, ensuring consistent precision and high-speed placement in demanding industrial environments.
SCARA and articulated robots ensure micron-accurate placement using SensorBoard
The module cell integrates either a SCARA or articulated-arm robot mounted on an aluminum baseplate from RK Profiltechnik. It features an embedded SensorBoard that replaces conventional camera systems by employing direct sensing, ensuring consistent accuracy regardless of lighting variations, dust, or debris interference. This technology maintains positional precision within one hundredth of a millimeter. Even at high motion speeds, the system reliably delivers precise component placements with minimal downtime overhead.
Rigid Blocan Table Frame Ensures Stable Robot Arm Movements
In its basic configuration, the robotic arm is mounted on a Blocan table frame offering exceptional rigidity that maintains stability even during rapid movements. Multiple interface points enable seamless integration of bespoke fixtures, sensors, and custom tooling modules to accommodate diverse process requirements. This versatile setup is suited for collaborative assembly tasks where humans and robots operate together, precision quality inspections demanding consistent accuracy, and academic training and research applications.
RK Rose+Krieger adds protective enclosure and manual loading station
For semi-automated production, component loading or sorting, RK Rose+Krieger enhances the module cell with a protective enclosure and a manual feed area. The expanded Blocan frame supports additional camera and vision systems, enabling users to integrate external monitoring technologies. This setup increases flexibility by accommodating inspection and critical handling workflows. Protective housing maintains safety standards while the manual insertion section streamlines part placement. Integration points simplify adaptation to existing systems.
Fully automated cell integrates material feed, production line compatibility
The fully automated module cell integrates an onboard material feeding system that continuously supplies components without manual handling. Engineered for smooth incorporation into existing production lines, it reduces idle time and elevates throughput. Modular mounting points accommodate monitors, touchscreens, and auxiliary control devices, improving operator ergonomics and access. Configurable panel arrangements and optional connectivity modules offer enhanced process monitoring. Real-time data display and alarm functions optimize production stability and traceability.
Modular building blocks enable assembly line adaptation, quick delivery
Each version is based on modular building blocks from linear technology, profile construction, and module engineering. This standardized approach streamlines customization for targeted assembly lines and supports rapid delivery. RK Rose+Krieger delivers module cells as complete solutions, including integrated robots and custom software programming. Provided as turnkey units, they integrate seamlessly into existing production environments, reducing setup time while ensuring consistent performance across industrial processes in efficient precision assembly.
Modular Cell Unites Flexibility Precision And Availability For Production
RK Rose+Kriegers modular cell integrates adaptability, accuracy, and rapid deployment in a unified platform. Its customizable framework supports diverse automation demands while the advanced SensorBoard technology delivers 0.01-millimeter position detection unaffected by lighting, dirt or dust. Available in collaborative, semi- and fully automated configurations, this solution streamlines assembly tasks. The modular design relies on standardized profiles, linear and connection elements, ensuring cost-effective tailored configurations and integration into industrial production lines.
