AIR12SC-820
Description
The Peitian AIR12SC-820 is a high-speed, high-rigidity 4-axis Chinese SCARA robot built for precise, fast-cycle assembly, handling and pick-and-place automation in compact production cells. With a 12 kg maximum payload, an 825 mm reach, and a position repeatability of ±0.02 mm on axes 1+2, it delivers the kinematic performance required for demanding industrial automation — including the high-speed handling of large-sized and large-eccentric components that push standard SCARA robots beyond their limits.
With a maximum axis 4 inertia of 0.45 kg·m² and a rotational speed of 1,600°/s, the AIR12SC-820 handles significantly off-centre tooling and irregular part geometries without compromising speed or accuracy — a decisive advantage in applications involving custom grippers, multi-part fixtures or asymmetric end effectors. At a combined axes 1+2 speed of 10,100 mm/s, it ranks among the fastest compact Chinese SCARA robots available in Europe for its payload class.
The internal hollow wiring design eliminates all external corrugated conduits from the arm, keeping the robot cell clean and protecting cables and pneumatic lines from wear during continuous high-cycle operation. The integrated small arm interface delivers 20 user IO channels and 4 pneumatic ports (φ6) directly at the end effector mounting point, simplifying gripper and tooling integration without additional cable management hardware. An optional drip-proof and dust-proof version (IP54) extends the AIR12SC-820’s operating range to environments affected by humidity, dust and oil mist, while the optional ceiling-mount configuration enables overhead installation to free up valuable floor space.
The Z-stroke is available in four variants — 200, 300, 400 and 600 mm — allowing precise adaptation to the vertical clearance of each specific application. Controlled by the compact Peitian inCube2S-20 controller, the AIR12SC-820 integrates efficiently into both new and existing production lines. Distributed across Europe exclusively by Peitian Europe, this Chinese SCARA robot is backed by full local technical support from Italy.
