Deflashing Robot suits manufacturing processes.
October 8, 2002 -
Model F-200iB parallel link, servo-driven robot has 6° of freedom. Suited for heavy-duty deflashing, drilling, and hole cutting, F-200iB is capable of feed rates up to 200 mm/sec for deflashing aluminum castings and up to 35 mm/sec for hole cutting (3 mm thick cold rolled sheet steel). Suitable for material removal, robot/pedestal welding, and tool/part manipulation, unit is capable of semiautomatic or fully automatic tool change.

FANUC Robotics Features New F-200iB parallel-link robot at IMTS 2002
CHICAGO, Sept. 4, 2002 -- FANUC Robotics North America, Inc. will demonstrate the new F-200iB robot at IMTS 2002 at the McCormick Center in Chicago in the East Hall, booth #4202 (shared with GE Fanuc). The F-200iB will highlight robotic deflashing and deburring in a demonstration with the new R-2000iA/200T robot.
The F-200iB is a parallel link, servo-driven robot with six degrees of freedom. Designed for use in a variety of manufacturing and automotive assembly processes, the powerful and compact F-200iB is engineered for applications requiring extreme rigidity and exceptional repeatability. It can be used for material removal, compact robot welding, vehicle lift and locate, pedestal welding, part loading, tool/part manipulation and flexible/convertible fixturing.
The superior rigidity and payload of the F-200iB makes it well suited for the rigors of heavy duty deflashing, drilling and hole cutting. The F-200iB is capable of significantly higher feed rates versus a serial link robot, with up to 200 mm/second for deflashing aluminum castings and up to 35 mm/second for hole cutting of 3 mm thick cold rolled sheet steel. The F-200iB also has increased accuracy due to less robot deflection versus a serial link robot, increased tool life due to less vibration and tool chatter and can include semiautomatic or fully automatic tool change.
At the show, the F-200iB and R-2000iA/200T robots will demonstrate a heavy-payload material handling process. The process includes de-palletizing and handling two 40 kg, inline-6, aluminum engine blocks. Using a simulated horizontal-spindle machine center, the R-2000iA/200T will load and unload engine blocks and manipulate them in front of a FANUC F-200iB robot.
The R-2000iA/200T and F-200iB robots will simulate deflashing of the rough-cast blocks and deburring of the finished, machined blocks. During the machine load/unload cycle, the R-2000iA/200T robot will demonstrate its dexterity by simultaneously moving both blocks through a series of complex motions as it exchanges a finished block for a raw block inside the machine center. After completing each cycle, the robot will palletize the engine blocks and then repeat the entire cycle.
