Stäubli has introduced the TX2-200 six-axis industrial robot, which brings several upgrades compared to its predecessor, the TX200. The TX2-200, which debuted at the automatica trade fair in Munich over a year ago, has been used across various industries, receiving positive feedback from users and partners.
The robot’s payload capacity has increased by over 30 percent, rising from 130 to 170 kilograms in the standard model, and by nearly 40 percent in the long-arm version, from 80 to 110 kilograms. Its reach is 2,209 millimeters in the standard version and 2,609 millimeters in the long-arm version.
The TX2-200 features updated safety technology that complies with SIL 3/PL e standards, allowing it to operate safely in human-robot collaboration environments without the need for protective barriers. This enables more flexible production setups.
The robot also offers improvements in energy efficiency, using 10 percent less energy during operation and up to 40 percent less in standby mode. This leads to potential cost savings of EUR 1,500 to 5,750 annually and a CO2 reduction of 3 to 13 tons, depending on the comparative model.
Other enhancements include improved drive technology, sealing, and materials, along with a controller that is 40 percent smaller than the previous version. The TX2-200 is designed for use in a range of environments, from harsh conditions to hygiene-sensitive industries.
