SCHUNK, Inc. is introducing the modular light-weight arm LWA 3. In contrast to classic robot arms, this offers seven degrees of freedom and therefore resembles a human arm in terms of its mobility. The use of high-strength materials permits a high nominal load capacity of 5 kg. Thanks to its light weight and outstanding load capacity-weight ratio it is especially suitable for use in mobile systems. All the joint program operations are stored in the electronic control unit of the joint modules as macros, which means the LWA 3 also significantly reduces the complexity of the control system. The joints are configured with center bores, which allow cables to be routed inside the arm in a protected manner.
The LWA 3 has a standard adaption on the wrist for mounting various gripping systems.
