Introduction
The oMRoN R6Y3 industrial robot is a high-speed, multi-joint (parallel link) industrial robot.
The R6Y3 parallel link mechanism features an α-axis, β-axis and γ-axis motor arranged at 120° intervals on a base, and
realizes robot movement in the x, Y and z directions by rotating each axis up and down at the point (TCp: tool center
point) where each arm intersects in parallel. By adding a θ-axis to the tip, the tool can also be rotated ±180 degrees in
addition to the above mentioned movements. The R6Y3 industrial robot is ideal for specialized, high-speed work such
as part transport or box packing.
