KX-2 COLLABORATIVE ROBOT FEATURES

  • Flexible

With 360° continuous rotation of the shoulder and wrist axes and a multi-link arm, the KX-2 offers extensive reach for effective use of the available space. The radial compactness of the KX-2 arm, combined with a wide reach, allows easy instrument accessibility and optimal instrument placement, leading to improved instrument density, easy serviceability and increased throughput.

  • Easy to decontaminate

The KX-2 was developed with contamination minimization in mind. The sealed design is wipe-clean with no bug traps, making it well-suited for Biosafety Level 2 applications.

  • High Safety

The KX-2 is ideal for use on an open bench as operator safety is assured – the KX-2 stops safely on human contact. The fully enclosed working mechanism ensures finger protection, making the robot fundamentally safe to use. The KX-2 is fully compliant with safety standards: ISO 10218–1:2011.

  • Simple to set up and easy to use

The KX-2 can handle a wide range of labware from different types of plates to tip racks, tube racks, petri-dishes and T-flasks, making it the robot of choice for a variety of research applications, including synthetic biology, drug discovery and biotechnology. The counter-balanced arm of the KX-2 allows handling of full deep well plates at maximum extension for optimal use of the work envelope.

KX-2 LINEAR RAIL FEATURES

  • High Speed

A maximum speed of 0.75 m/s allows the linear rail to move quickly from one end of a large system to the other, increasing efficiency.

  • Quiet Operation

The helical planetary gearing and belt drive keeps audible noise to a minimum.

  • Drag-to-Teach

Simply move the linear rail and robot to the correct position and with a touch of a button and the teaching is complete. Quick, simple, and revolutionary.

  • Intelligent Motion Control

The linear rail and robot execute synchronized motion simultaneously. This improves efficiency and simplifies setup.

  • Easy to Integrate

USB interface provides easy connection to host PC. Linear rail and KX2 can be added to existing systems, expanding capability and throughput.

  • Standard I/O built-in

Digital and Analogue I/O available at the linear rail connector panel for interfacing and controlling other devices.

  • Numerous Options

Every application is unique and with a wide selection of options including linear rail length and various KX2 robot options, the linear rail and robot can be tailored to your exact requirements.
