Combined 6 Axis and Linear Robot Has Long Reach

更遠伸程的6軸向線性機器人

Clinton Township, Michigan — May 25, 2006 – KUKA Robotics Corporation, a leading global manufacturer of industrial robots, today announced the introduction of the KUKA Jet robot, a 6 axis robot mounted on a linear unit. The new robot is designed for customers with applications that entail long reach tasks. The 6 axis robot is mounted either upside down or sideways on the linear rail depending on the application need and is available in four configurations with different reaches and working ranges.

密歇根州克林頓鎮5月25日消息—全球領先的工業機器人生產商KUKA機器人公司今天宣布推出KUKA Jet 機器人
，一款可安裝於線性裝置的6軸機器人。該新款機器人用於客戶需要承擔較遠伸程任務的應用。該6軸機器人可以根據應用需要倒掛式或側裝式安裝於直線軌上


，並且有四種不同伸縮長度和工作範圍的配置。

"Customers with applications where long distances need to be traversed will find the KUKA JET robot ideal," said Kevin Kozuszek, director of marketing for KUKA Robotics Corporation. "The robot combines the speed of a linear axis and the flexibility of a 6-axis robot making it ideal for handling tasks in multiple industries including injection molding, die casting, machine tool manufacturing and logistics."

KUKA機器人公司市場部主管Kevin Kozuszek表示：“那些需要長距離來回移動應用的客戶將發現KUKA JET機器人是如此的理想。這款機器人結合了線軸的速度和6軸機器人的靈活性，使得它可以完美地執行多種工業任務，包括注塑成型、衝模鑄造
、機床生產和物流等行業。”

The KUKA JET robot’s enhanced maneuverability allows machines to be tended through narrow openings and parts precisely positioned even within the machine. It also allows parts to be withdrawn from the machine in a longitudinal direction making it possible to serve a number of machines in a row. Additionally, the installation can be configured to allow several machines to be tended by one combination. The KUKA JET robot is available in four configurations with different reaches and working ranges with payloads ranging from 30 to 60 kilograms.
