Overview

• • The ER10B-900-MI/3 is a 3 axis industrial robot arm from the MINI Series, rated for a 10 kg payload across a 900 mm working radius.
• • Repeatability is held at plus or minus 0.03 mm, which keeps the end effector aligned with locating pins and fixture bores through long production runs.
• • The arm body weighs 50 kg and carries IP54 protection, so it fits cells with dust, coolant mist or washdown exposure.
• • Installation is listed as Ceiling, letting the cell designer place the robot above the machine or on a standard floor pedestal.
• • Joint speeds reach 400 degrees per second at the fastest axis, so transfer moves finish inside the machine cycle instead of extending it.
• • Conformity documentation ships with each unit, and CE marking can be arranged for European projects on request.
• • The MINI Series shares its controller family and flange interface with the rest of the range, so spare parts and fixture plates carry over between models.

Specifications

Advantages

• • A 10 kg payload on a 50 kg body keeps moving mass low, which shortens settling time and lifts cycle rate.
• • Plus or minus 0.03 mm repeatability is tight enough for assembly, fastener driving and insertion work without secondary alignment stations.
• • IP54 protection covers the joints against dust, chips and coolant mist found in machining and foundry cells.
• • 900 mm reach covers a compact machine cell without adding a seventh axis or a linear track.
• • Axis speeds to 400 degrees per second shorten air moves between pick and place points.
• • Ceiling mounting gives layout freedom when floor space is already taken by machines, conveyors or storage racks.
• • A common controller and flange across the MINI Series reduce spares holding and simplify operator training.

Applications

• • Machine tending for CNC lathes, machining centres and presses
• • Pick and place transfer between conveyors, trays and indexing tables
• • Assembly, fastener driving and dispensing cells
• • Packaging infeed, case packing and end of line palletising
• • Loading under vision, measurement and inspection stations
• • High speed overhead transfer inside narrow ceiling mounted envelopes

FAQ

What does the 10 kg payload include?

The rated 10 kg covers the end effector, gripper, workpiece and any dress pack carried on the wrist. The figure holds out to the full 900 mm reach, so a 2 kg tool still leaves 8 kg of part weight at maximum extension.

How is IP54 protection rated on this model?

This unit is rated IP54. That covers the dust, chip and coolant mist exposure typical of machining and foundry cells, while direct high pressure jet washing of the joints is not recommended.

Which mounting positions are supported?

The model is listed for Ceiling mounting and uses the same base bolt pattern in either orientation, so a cell can be inverted or moved to the floor without ordering a different mounting plate.

What is supplied with each arm?

Each unit ships with the MINI Series controller, teach pendant, power and signal cables, and a documentation set covering the parameter sheet and conformity papers.
