  • Cartesian Gantry Robots - Advantages and Applications
    SCARA and articulating arm robots might be the most recognizable form of robot on the market today, but look to gantry robots for getting the big jobs done in the least amount of space.
  • When Do You Need a Gantry Robot?
    Articulated robots like these are widely recognized, thanks to car company commercials and robot dance sequences. SCARA (Selective Compliance Articulated Robot Arm) robots are also well-recognized due to their adoption and proliferation in factories since the early 1980's. Both
  • 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
  • Gantry Systems: Working Outside the Envelope
    The irregular work envelopes of traditional jointed articulating arms may require redesign of existing workspaces. SCARA and articulating arm robots might be the most recognizable form of robot on the market today but look to gantry robots for getting the big jobs done in the least amount of space
  • Gantry Systems: The Perfect Solution for Heavy Loads and Larger Work Areas
    Automation in the manufacturing industry is continuing to grow in demand and can be applied to nearly every application from processing, assembly, inspection to packaging. Gantries and 6-axis industrial robots are widely used to achieve automation for applications such as palletizing, sorting
  • What is Linear Robotics?
    ; up and down, back and forth, as well as in and out. Linear robots with horizontal members supported at both ends are referred to as Gantry robots.
  • What You Should Know About Cartesian Robots
    are boxy, open, and their primary X-Y directional motion is regulated from above by a rectangular gantry. A lead screw or other linear actuator controls movement in the vertical, Z-direction. All Cartesian robots have this rectangular configuration, and as a result, they are sometimes called
  • What is Racking in Gantry Systems?
    Gantries differ from other types of multi-axis systems (such as Cartesian robots and XY tables) by using two base (X) axes in parallel, with a perpendicular (Y) axis connecting them. While this dual X-axis arrangement provides a wide, stable footprint and allows gantry systems to deliver high load
