  • What is a Cartesian Robot?
    First, a Cartesian system is one that moves in three, orthogonal axes -- X, Y, and Z -- according to the Cartesian coordinates. (Although it should be noted that a rotary axis -- in the form of an end effector or end of arm tooling -- is sometimes included on the outermost axis of a Cartesian robot.)
  • What Makes a Robot a Cartesian Robot?
    First, a Cartesian system is one that moves in three, orthogonal axes - X, Y, and Z - according to the Cartesian coordinates. (Although it should be noted that a rotary axis - in the form of an end effector or end of arm tooling - is sometimes included on the outermost axis of a Cartesian robot.)
  • What Is a Gantry Stage / Cartesian Robot?
    A precision gantry stage or gantry system is sometimes called a linear robot or Cartesian robot. Gantry robots typically provide overhead motion in 2 or 3 linear degrees of freedom (X-Y and X-Y-Z) and are often used for pick and place applications, 3D printing or laser machining, precision handling
  • What You Should Know About Cartesian Robots
    Machines that operate on Cartesian coordinate systems have been staples in factories for decades. 3D printers, laser-cutters, and CNC machines are examples of devices that use the same principle as Cartesian robots. What sets these robots apart from others is their construction. Cartesian robots
  • Three Important Design Considerations for Cartesian Robots
    If your application calls for a Cartesian robot, you have a wide variety of options, depending on the level of integration you want to undertake. And although pre-engineered Cartesian robots are becoming more widely adopted as manufacturers expand their product ranges to fit a broader scope
  • Tips for Selecting Pre-Engineered Cartesian Robots
    Cartesian robots operate in two or three axes along the Cartesian coordinate system of X, Y, and Z. While SCARA and 6-axis robots are more widely recognized, Cartesian systems can be found in nearly every industrial application imaginable, from semiconductor manufacturing to woodworking equipment
  • Doing the Heavy Lifting: When Cartesian Robots Make the Most Sense
    Compared to a Cartesian robot, a SCARA or six-axis system will generally deliver higher performance out of the box at a higher cost and with greater programming requirements, but with a smaller footprint, less weight and less rigid arm extension. On the other hand, a Cartesian system provides
  • What are Cartesian Robots?
    Cartesian coordinate geometry is an excellent method for mapping three-dimensional space in a simple, easy-to-understand numerical system. In the Cartesian system for three-dimensional space, there are three coordinate axes that are perpendicular to each other (orthogonal axes) and meet
