ARC Arm M8
A six-axis arm with tooling cut to your part, retrofitted into a running line between shifts.

A six-axis arm with tooling cut to your part, retrofitted into a running line between shifts.

A six-axis arm supplied with its tooling already cut to your part, wired, and proven on the bench before it reaches the floor. It is the quickest way to put a robot on a line that is already running.
Most of these go in as retrofits, between shifts, on equipment that cannot stop for a week.
The arm itself is a standard six-axis machine. What we add is the tooling, the wiring, the safety case, and the proof that all three work together before it arrives.
The arm carries up to 35 kg including tooling, with grip range from 5 to 200 mm on the supplied end-effector. A pick and place cycle completes in under 0.9 seconds, and repeatability holds to ±0.02 mm.
Reach and mounting orientation are chosen against your station rather than the other way round.
The arm runs your cycle on our bench for a full production shift, with the tooling that will ship with it. The figures on the handover sheet come from that run, and the log goes in the crate.
We map your interface before anything is built: signals, safety circuits, addresses and the way your engineers name them. The arm and its tooling are wired and run against that map here, on our bench.
The retrofit is planned around a maintenance window, with the point of no return marked on it and the old setup boxed until the new one has run a full week.
Safety is the part that takes longest, not the robot. The assessment covers the altered area rather than the arm alone, and it is written before the window opens.
End-effector faces wear first and are changed at the station. The arm itself follows the maker's service schedule, and we hold the tooling spares.
As-built drawings and addresses are handed over on the day the arm first runs production.
The tooling is ours to support and the arm is the maker's, and the pack says plainly which is which. Either way there is one number to call.

What engineers usually ask before they order a unit.
Are the drawings ours to keep?
Yes. As-built drawings, part numbers and wear-face profiles are in the handover pack, and you are free to have spares cut elsewhere.
Will it work with the controller we already have?
Yes. Everything we ship reports on plain digital IO and IO-Link, and we wire to the tag names your line already uses rather than ours.
Can we specify the mounting flange?
The standard is ISO 9409-1-50, which fits most wrists without an adapter. If yours is different, send the drawing and we machine to it.
What arrives in the crate?
The unit, a spare set of wear faces, the measured test sheet, the wiring interface and the as-built drawings. Nothing is sent on afterwards.
Do the figures on this page apply to every unit?
They are the range. Each unit ships with a sheet carrying its own measured payload, repeatability and cycle time, taken from the rig run before it was crated.
Can the jaws be changed for a different part?
Yes. Contact faces are cut against a part number and swapped at the station. A new part usually means a new set of faces, not a new unit.
