The Mitsubishi Electric ARIA has a small footprint, is fully configurable and offers a broad array of options and preprogrammed software packages that enable the unit to be tailored to the application.

Mitsubishi Electric launched its newest pre-engineered work cell product to its existing lineup with LoadMate Plus.

Automated Robotic Industrial Assistant (ARIA), according to the company, is cost-effective offering to address labor shortages and productivity challenges across a multitude of industries.

ARIA robot work cell capabilities

ARIA has a payload capacity of up to 13 kg (28.6 lbs.) and reach capabilities of 1503 mm (59.173"). It is suitable for use as a stand-alone cell, or it can be implemented into a larger system and offers two different base options: standard and machine tool bases.

ARIA’s Standard Base option is designed for various industry applications where flexibility and mobility are a must. The machine tool base is designed for tending CNC mill, lathe and Swiss applications. Both bases are suitable for Mitsubishi Electric collaborative, vertical/articulated and SCARA robots.

“ARIA fulfills an immediate need for flexible and cost-effective automation that addresses common industry problems such as labor shortages, productivity challenges, and the need to maintain quality standards,” said David Simak, product manager (service) at Mitsubishi Electric. “ARIA is fully configurable and mobile, making it an ideal solution to tackle multiple applications within a given facility.”

Included in the ARIA package is an FX5 PLC, an external 120V outlet, casters with jackscrews, a network switch with an external EtherNet port, an Operator station w/button panel, floor mounting brackets and more. Accessory add-on features include preprogrammed software packages, RT ToolBox3 software, MELFA Works for robot simulation, MELFA Safe Plus, Force Sensor, R86TB high-performance teach pendant and two HMI options.
