Adept Technology has signed ControlVision as a distributor to bring advanced assembly robotics to Australasia.
The launch is timed with the release of what is said to be the fastest 2 kg payload robot in the world, the Adept Quattro.
The payload robot is said to hold the record for the fastest Selective Compliant Assembly Robot Arm (SCARA) design.
Adept produces a range of robot mechanisms for packaging and manufacturing assembly including parallel arm, SCARA, linear module, and six-axis designs.
The company supplies its controller product to leading OEM machine builders for inclusion in their own equipment.
“With ControlVision’s expertise in automated imaging and our robot product line we believe we can offer the region reliable high-speed solutions,” Adept Technology president John Dulchinos said.
“Robotics and vision go hand-in-hand and we’ll be using the same value-added distribution model we use for machine vision,” ControlVision director Peter Miles said.
According to Miles, ControlVision will target the light robotics market for high-speed, high-accuracy mechanisms. ControlVision will establish robot laboratories in Melbourne and Auckland and will use Adept’s Singapore facility for specialist application evaluations and customer training.
