Basic Description: The Kawasaki ZX Series robots are designed for heavy-duty payload applications requiring a flexible work envelope and minimal dead space. The patented Kawasaki Hybrid Link Configuration allows the robot to turn backward, minimizing plant floor space requirements. The new space saving design incorporates a small footpring with integrated air piping and wiring. By utilizing IP67 for the wrist, the ZX Series robots are able to operate in the most severe environments. The ZX Series robots provide a great variety of options for the customer, having different arm combinations for various reaches, speeds and payloads.
