A Cartesian robot, also referred to as a linear robot, is an industrial robot that operates along three orthogonal axes (X, Y, and Z) to provide linear motion. These robots find applications in various fields such as computer numerical control machines, pick and place machines, 3D printers, and laboratories, where tasks necessitate speed and precision. They are renowned for their accuracy and precision, with tolerances typically within the micrometer range, rendering them suitable for tasks demanding high levels of precision.
The main types of Cartesian robots include the XY-X series, 2X-Y-Z series, and 2X-2Y-Z series. The XY-X Series, also known as the Yamaha XY-X Series, denotes a high-performance Cartesian robot engineered for a broad spectrum of applications requiring rapid and precise automation. These robots are utilized in diverse applications including handling, palletizing, and welding across industries such as automotive, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, semiconductor and electronics, as well as aerospace and defense.
