Techman Robot TM16 Overview
The Techman Robot TM16 is a 6-axis collaborative robot with a 16 kg payload, a 917 mm reach and a repeatability of ±0.1 mm. Its built-in 5 MP auto-focus color camera lets it locate parts and carry out vision-guided handling, assembly and inspection tasks without a separate vision system. The arm weighs 32 kg, moves at up to 4 m/s and is protected to IP54, while the control box is rated IP32. It is programmed with TMflow and communicates over Ethernet, RS-232 and Modbus TCP/RTU, with digital and analog I/O on both the control box and the tool flange.
