ROS robot rethink robotics-sawyer robot arm

Sawyer

Sawyer is the revolutionary collaborative robot designed to execute precise tasks that have been impractical to automate with traditional industrial robots.  Sawyer gives manufacturers the high performance automation they need, while maintaining the flexibility, safety and affordability that have become synonymous with our brand.

Flexible and Fast

Sawyer is designed for a wide variety of high speed, high precision tasks that require flexibility and safety. Sawyer is the answer to higher productivity and greater efficiency.

Embedded Cognex Vision

Sawyer is equipped with an embedded vision system – a Cognex camera in its wrist that enables the Robot Positioning System ａnd other complex vision tasks.

Small Footprint, Long Reach

With 7 degrees of freedom and a 1260 mm maximum reach, Sawyer fits into work cells already designed for people, and it can maneuver into tight spaces, much like a human arm.

Internationally Available

Sawyer was built from the ground up to meet the needs of the global manufacturing marketplace. It is available through our Channel Partners worldwide.

Accessories

Vacuum Cup Grippers

Can be used to pick up a wide range of objects, especially if they’re smooth, non-porous or flat.  Connect directly to external air lines.

Electric Parallel Grippers

Allow Sawyer to pick up rigid and semi-rigid objects of many shapes and sizes.  Interchangeable fingers and fingertips maximize flexibility.

Pedestal

Optional rolling pedestal with industrial grade casters makes it easy to move Sawyer quickly and safely between workstations.

main feature:

 1: safety

         Sawyer incorporates force sensors on all axes and uses safety technology. The intensity sensor can respond to slight changes in external force to achieve anti-collision safety protection. In the event of an accidental contact, sawyer immediately reduces its speed, reducing its kinetic energy to the point where loss can be avoided. With intrinsically safe design, humans and robots can work together without the need for extensive safety precautions.

  2: flexible

       The sawyer robot has seven degrees of freedom and can reach the target point through a variety of paths. The pose of the end tool can be combined in multiple axis positions. Particularly suitable for the small space, difficult to install the production system, sawyer can play a highly flexible role of operating assistant. Sawyer has two

An embedded vision system and a unique robot positioning system. Sawyer employs Intera®, the most advanced and intuitive software platform in the industry, and workers can quickly and easily retrain Sawyer as production tasks change.

  3: precise

       sawyer robot with high precision. Wrist incorporates a Cognex lens for precision operation. Each joint incorporates a high-resolution force sensor that supports its compliance control, allowing Sawyer to find the position with "(feel)" even though the (picked-up) part or position is variable. This unique ability to operate repetitively is unique not only in the robotics industry, but also enables Sawyer to operate efficiently in semi-structured environments with error requirements within 0.1 mm.

  4: low cost

       Sawyer's built-in intelligence system can improve its uptime, reduce the loss rate, greatly enhance the quality. Thanks to this, the operating costs of the entire production line will be significantly reduced and rewarded in months, not years.
