SCARA robots developed explicitly for the new energy industry

2025/01/17 By Topstar

Lithium battery production(1)

Countries worldwide are at the forefront of energy transformation, and various new energy fields have emerged, including photovoltaics and lithium batteries. Whether it is the silicon wafer, battery, and component production lines in the photovoltaic industry or the process sections of core making, assembly, chemical composition, and module PACK in the lithium battery industry, there are many robots and intelligent automation needs. With the popularization of new energy vehicles and the accelerated penetration of renewable energy, including photovoltaics, these industries have become the main driving force of the industrial robot market. Therefore, Topstar has launched a new TRH10&TRH15 series of high-load SCARA robots specifically for the new energy industry.

More comprehensive and high-load SCARA robots

The TRH10&TRH15 series represents the SCARA robot series, with excellent comprehensive strengths of high load, precision, and speed. The TRH10 series has a 600-1000 mm arm span range, which can flexibly handle various tasks. Its rated load capacity is 10 kg, and the maximum load is 20 kg, so it can easily handle light and medium-heavy tasks. The TRH15 series is even more unique, with an arm span of 800-1000 mm, a rated load of 15 kg, and is more robust with a maximum load of 25 kg. Despite the high load capacity, both series achieve impressive standard cycle times, 0.39 seconds for the TRH10 and 0.48 seconds for the TRH15. These specifications make the TRH10 and TRH15 series ideal for high-speed, heavy-load applications in the lithium battery industry, and these robots are fine-tuned to run at faster speeds without compromising accuracy or stability.

What breakthroughs have been made in the research and development of the RH10&TRH15 series?

First, we must consider the three requirements: accuracy, load, and speed. In designing this series of SCARA robots, we have solved the problems of lightweight and whole machine force deformation, large inertia ratio and control response, significant inertia change and vibration suppression, etc. This makes them faster under the same load and has a more substantial load capacity under the same load. The TRH10&TRH15 series robots have a rapid cycle, high load, and stable operation, inseparable from the high coordination and integration of robot software and hardware and continuous simulation adjustment and verification to ensure the best results.

How do these SCARA robots help optimize production in the new energy industry?

Engineers optimized the TRH10 and TRH15 series for high-speed performance. After extensive testing, the TRH15 series is at least 20% faster than traditional robots in the industry. This speed increase enables various new energy manufacturers to achieve higher output, shorten production time, and improve the overall efficiency of the production line. Whether it is module packaging tasks in lithium battery production or silicon wafer processing tasks in photovoltaic manufacturing, these robots can meet the high-speed needs of the industry. In addition, the ability of these SCARA robots to maintain high speed when handling heavy loads is a significant advantage. Traditional industrial robots often have difficulty maintaining speed and accuracy under heavy loads, but the TRH10 and TRH15 series excel in this regard, providing faster cycles and more substantial load capacity.

What are the specific applications?

In terms of application, it can meet the needs of core making, assembly, chemical componentization, and module PACK in the lithium battery industry. The application of various process segments, such as silicon wafers, batteries, and component production lines in the photovoltaic sector, basically covers the mainstream demand for SCARA robot in the new energy industry. In addition, the TRH10&TRH15 series can also meet the application needs of 3C (screen lamination, silk screen printing, testing, labeling, screw locking), packaging (positioning, molding, assembly, lamination), medical (handling, sorting, assembly, testing, packaging) and other industries.

What benefits can it bring to customers?

Take a leading new energy industry as an example. They proposed increasing the production line capacity to meet the consumer market’s needs. The automated production line transformation process requires the load to be grasped to be nearly 20kg. The four-axis robot with a maximum rated load of 20kg on the market can handle only 10kg, and most of the time, operators must use it at a reduced speed. Therefore, the slow speed of the robot has become their bottleneck. In response to this demand raised by customers, Topstar has developed the TRH15 series of robots. In addition, field testing achieved good performance, and the speed increased by at least 20% compared to traditional industry robots. It also proves that this series of robots can meet the customer’s on-site load requirements of nearly 20kg and are suitable for heavy-load, high-speed application scenarios.

Meeting various challenges in the new energy industry

These SCARA robots improve efficiency and shorten production time, enabling manufacturers to meet the demand for new energy products. Whether for lithium battery production, photovoltaic manufacturing, or other new energy applications, the TRH10 and TRH15 series can help companies stay competitive in the new energy market.
