TWO FAMILIES / MELFA CR

Choose the robot for the task

Tool orientation, payload, reach and installation environment determine the robot and controller configuration.

01Six-axis articulated robots

RV-CR

MELFA RV-CR

RV-8CRL / RV-12CRL feature slender bodies for cells requiring flexible tool orientation.

  • Maximum payload: 8 / 12 kg

    Reach: 931 mm or 1504 mm. Check gripper mass, allowable torque and inertia.

  • IP65 protection and compact structure

    The catalog specifies IP65 protection. The slender structure reduces interference when integrating the robot into a cell.

  • Wiring and maintenance

    Internal gripper wiring and air lines simplify integration. HK motors remove the encoder backup battery requirement. Belt-driven axes still require model-specific maintenance.

RH-CRH

MELFA RH-CRH

RH-3 / 6 / 10 / 20CRH cover different payload and reach requirements for planar handling and assembly.

  • Maximum payload range: 3–20 kg

    Maximum payloads of 3, 6, 10 or 20 kg. Reach spans 400–1000 mm and Z stroke spans 180–420 mm, depending on the model.

  • Low-profile construction

    Compact arm covers reduce overall height. The lightweight structure supports integration; standard protection is IP20.

  • Tool connections

    Internal tool wiring and pneumatic lines support grippers. Confirm pin count, pipe size, stroke and installation clearances for the selected model.

CONTROL / ENGINEERING / CONNECTIVITY

From robot to integrated automation cell

CR80099.5 mm

CR800

Low-profile controller

CR800 is 99.5 mm high and can be installed horizontally or vertically. Select the controller for the robot model. It supports MELFA-BASIC V / VI, external I/O and device communication.

Engineering from design to maintenance

RT ToolBox3

Engineering from design to maintenance

Program editing, debugging, simulation, 3D viewing and monitoring support commissioning. Visual programming connects instruction modules to create robot programs.

Conveyor tracking and additional axes

TRACKING

Conveyor tracking and additional axes

Tracking supports handling, arranging and assembly on moving conveyors. The catalog describes up to eight additional axes; confirm drive hardware and coordination for the system.

Integration with factory equipment

GOT / NETWORK

Integration with factory equipment

GOT can share robot status, errors and maintenance data. Optional network cards support CC-Link IE Field, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP and PROFINET. Confirm model compatibility for vision, force sensing and MELFA Smart Plus.

Feature applicability

The catalog states that RV-12CRL does not support MELFA Smart Plus; applicable RV-8CRL support requires CR800-D Ver.A5p or later. Confirm network, vision, force sensing and safety features against model and option documentation.
