Introduction
The YAMAHA YK120X and YK180 series robots are SCARA type industrial
robots developed based on years of YAMAHA experience and achievements in
the automation field as well as efforts to streamline our in-house manufacturing
systems.
The SCARA robots have a two-joint manipulator consisting of an X-axis arm
and a Y-axis arm, and are further equipped with a vertical axis (Z-axis) and a
rotating axis (R-axis) at the tip of the manipulator. The YK120X and YK180
series robots can be used for a wide range of assembly applications such as
installation and insertion of various parts, application of sealant, and packing
operations.
