It's ideal for applications that require precision motion and force control.
A Chinese robot developer called Flexiv has engineered "the world's first force-controlled parallel robot" for applications that require precision motion and force control, such as fastening screws, polishing items, and handling precision loads. The robot is called Moonlight.
The robot has the unique ability to measure forces accurately down to 0.1N , and can even handle delicate objects with great precision and care, according to a report published on Tuesday byAccording to its maker, the new robot can take on tasks that usually require conventional robot arms, while maintaining the agility and speed of a parallel robot.
"Moonlight is a combination of our award-winning Rizon series of robots and the industry-proven parallel bot design," said Flexiv's director of product development, Hao Jiang. "We saw that in some specific applications, customers needed a powerful, cost-effective robotic solution which combines highly precise force control with adaptability, so that's what we built. With its increased speed and greater precision, Moonlight boosts production efficiency while retaining a multi-role capacity."The Moonlight robot complies with Pl d safety requirements, supports EtherCat communications, and is IP65-protected.
Since it can operate at any angle, the robot is also suitable for delicate tasks such as inserting screws into PCBs without risking damage to the boards,The Moonlight robot can be complemented by a Flexiv robotic gripper that the company says can pick up almost any item, regardless of its shape or surface texture.
