FAUNC’s Popular LR Mate Robot Series Now Features 10 Model Variations

FANUC America, the leading supplier of CNCs, robotics, and ROBOMACHINEs has introduced the LR Mate 200iD/14L, the tenth model variation of the popular LR Mate series of tabletop industrial robots. Since the LR Mate series was launched nearly 30 years ago, it has become one of FANUC’s biggest sellers, with over 70,000 units installed across the globe.

The popularity of the LR Mate robot series is due to FANUC’s world-renowned reliability along with a number of unique features including its lightweight, tabletop size, which is often compared to the size of a person’s arm. In addition, the LR Mate can reportedly process or handle parts weighing up to 14 kilograms in the automotive, e-commerce and warehousing, food and beverage, medical device, pharmaceutical, and many other industries.

Ten models include clean room and wash proof versions, each with various wrist speeds and reaches to accommodate even the most limited workspace.

The LR Mate 200iD robots reportedly offer a “best in class” work envelope for both upright and invert mount installations. The LR Mate 200iD robot series also offers an ISO Class 4 clean room/food-grade variant for food handling and healthcare packaging applications.

These small tabletop robots can be equipped with a variety of intelligent features including robot vision and force sensing functionality for even higher levels of accuracy and productivity.
