The Strong Arm Of Robotics Continues To Reach Higher Functionality
Digital CxO, Monday, March 10th, 2025
Mitsubishi Electric just dropped two new robotic arms, and they're built with both design and functionality in mind, according to the Tokyo-based company.
The robot arms aren't your typical factory bots. They don't have batteries, which takes the worry out of replacing them - an activity that causes down time, and in hard-to-reach areas may require special tools or temporary displacement, or readjustment of the arm altogether.
The MELFA RH-10CRH arm is capable of lifting 10 kilograms, and is designed to handle high-speed transportation and assembly, which makes it a natural fit for food and automotive production lines. The RH-20CRH model has more muscle, can lift up to 20 kilograms, and is suited to lifting and packaging heavier objects.
