Flexible press brake automation with CR-010B
Amada has released the CR-010B, a collaborative bending robot designed to automate press brake operations. The robot can be easily attached and detached from the press brake, enabling flexible use: human operators can handle complex or small-batch workpieces, while the robot performs simple or mass production tasks.
Easy robot programming without CAM
The CR-010B features a simplified robot program creation tool that links with the press brake’s NC equipment, allowing robot programs to be created without CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) software. In addition, the adoption of a laser scanner to monitor human approach eliminates the need for safety fences, enabling a compact installation.
Key specifications and sales plan
The robot has a payload capacity of 10 kg and comes with three types of grippers. It can handle workpieces up to 400 × 400 mm. The list price is 22.32 million yen (excluding tax), and Amada aims to sell 15 units within the first year.
