Shibaura Machine SCARA industrial robots

Standing for Selective Compliant Articulated Robot Arm, SCARA robots were originally created to automate assembly or loading and unloading tasks with speed and precision. One of the more compact types of industrial robot, they feature a two-link arm designed to mimic the action of a human arm.

SCARA robots are ideal for industrial operations such as food processing, pharmaceutical, electronics manufacturing and automotive applications where effective pick and place, inspection, assembly and packaging functionality is essential.

With a Shibaura Machine SCARA robot, components can be picked, placed, moved, packed and unpacked with ease by a robot that keeps its factory floor footprint to a minimum. We can even mount them to the ceiling.

Their speed and efficiency also makes our SCARA models an excellent choice for robot machine tending and materials handling applications.

Adding one or more Shibaura Machine SCARA robots to a production line is one of the more affordable ways to increase production speed and deliver payback on your automation investment, something that is increasingly important to remain competitive in Industry 4.0.
