TM Robotics (tmrobotics.com) is launching Toshiba Machine’s THE600 SCARA robot to the North American market at Automate 2019, in Chicago April 8–11, 2019.

The THE600 is the latest addition to Toshiba Machine’s range and builds upon the established specifications of the THE400. Toshiba Machine’s THE400, which was launched last year, promises to boost manufacturers’ productivity without extortionate investments. Boasting twice the speed and 60 percent higher payload capacity than competing SCARA models in the same price range, both THE models provide ideal investments for those new to automation.

“Combining high speed operation with a high payload capacity, the THE600 model has been developed to meet growing demand for fast-cycle automation,” explained Nigel Smith, president of TM Robotics. “Manufacturers are looking for machines to deliver improved precision and enhanced performance without breaking the bank, particularly in parts assembly, testing and transfer processes."

TM Robotics will showcase Toshiba Machine’s latest robots from booth number #6763. Demonstrations include models from the SCARA and six-axis range, as well as robot programming tool, TSAssist.
