More Reach - Higher Payloads

The Epson C8L Long Reach 6-Axis robots provide high performance with longer reach while maintaining our unique slimline package. With up to 8Kg of payload, Epson C8L robots can reach into tight quarters handling many different mid-sized 6-axis jobs while keeping an extremely small footprint. Just like our Epson C4 robots, the C8L design includes a unique compact wrist pitch as well as a slim body elbow design. With a weight at only 52Kg, Epson C8L robots are 2-3x lighter than comparable competitive models while also providing superior motion and cycle times. Bottom line, Epson C8L robots were made for big jobs in tight spaces. Our goal was to continue our lineup of robust 6-axis robots in compact configurations capable of meeting Epson's high performance standards. The new Epson C8L does that and more by allowing payloads up to 8Kg while maintaining fast speeds and cycle times with an extremely tiny footprint.

The Epson C8L cycle times are just 0.38 seconds (with a 3Kg payload). Starting with 1000W motors on the J1 axis, Epson C8L robots are powerful yet compact. The Epson C8L's footprint to motion range ratio is in a class by itself and the outstanding flexibility allows Epson robots to do jobs that other small 6 axis arms simply cannot do (or that take much more cycle time to complete).

How Do We Do It? (Unique to Epson)

Our slimline body and compact wrist design enable greater motion range and less mechanical restrictions than comparably sized models. Larger motors and superior servo controls allow for fast yet precise motion control which means smoother motion for your next application. In addition Epson acceleration/deceleration rates due to our high performance Epson proprietary servo system provide fast motion on a smooth path.

Unique to Epson: Residual Vibration Technology - Most 6-axis arm manufacturers have to add size to get the rigidity required for reasonable arm performance. Epson has a unique Residual Vibration Technology that allows our SlimLine arms to produce outstanding speed, precision, accel/decel rates and much more without requiring more weight and bulk. Reducing vibration is the key to high performance, and our Residual Vibration Technology using Epson QMEMS sensors help significantly reduce vibration through detecting and canceling vibration.

Industries We Serve

Epson C8L Long Reach 6-axis robots are ideally suited for the Automotive, Medical, Electronics, Appliance, Consumer, Food, PC Peripheral, Semiconductor, Plastics, and Aerospace industries. They can be used for a wide variety of applications ranging from component handling for Automotive to industrial parts handling or Consumer Product Assembly. There are tens of thousands of different applications that these robots can handle. Give us a call and let us help you with your next application.

Based on our successful C4L robots, Epson C8L robots maintain the key slimline design with high performance of the C4L robots but with a little more reach and a lot more payload. Epson C8L robots are built for applications in tight spaces where maximum flexibility, and speed along with minimum footprint are required. Epson C8L Long Reach 6-Axis Robots combined with our PowerDrive servo technology yield high performance results that customers have come to appreciate and expect from Epson. Also, included with our new C8L Long Reach 6-axis robots is our new leading edge Residual Vibration Technology utilizing Epson QMEM's (Quartz Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) which sense angular velocity and feedback to our servo motion servo system to help significantly reduce vibration during motion and stop/start thus yielding smoother motion and faster positioning.
