The RFA Robot-Palletloader RS020N with RFA-Pallet is a robot system, which RFA has developed for loading pallets with work pieces into milling machines. The Kawasaki RS020N robot (6 axis, repeatability ±0.04 mm, payload 20 kg., reach Ø 3.450 mm.) is very suitable.
The operator can easily set the sequence of the pallets by a few tabs on the tablet pc with the intuitive RFA-Pallet software.

The robot is mounted on the stand at an angle of 45°, in this way it is possible to place the robot next to the door of the machine, leaving the access to the machine-door free for the operator.
As there are 2 access points where the operator can exchange the pallets, the robot can continue when a pallet is loaded by the operator.
Thanks to the RFA-Pallet software, which runs on the tablet-pc, it is easy to set the robot program for a sequence of loading pallets. No special knowledge of programming is needed, the operator is guided by clear and intuitive menu’s.
The robot is equipped with a special gripper for 1 pallet. The robot blows chips and coolant of the work piece and the chuck in the machine, by moving a pneumatic nozzle which is mounted on the gripper.
This compact robot system requires a small floor space. By using a safety light barrier with a mirror, two sides of the robot cell are open, for a safe and optimal access for the operator.
As an option for an extra price of € 3.200,00 the additional software RFA-JobEdit for mixed production will be installed on the tablet-pc.
