Award-winning industrial robot

Yamaha Motor Europe’s LCMR200 series is an award-winning industrial robot, winning both the iF Design Award and the Red Dot Award, 2021 edition. It is a linear conveyor with a modular structure that improves space efficiency and productivity.

Yamaha Motor Europe announced that LCMR200 industrial robot (linear conveyor module for transfer systems) has won Germany’s internationally prestigious iF Design Award and Red Dot Award: Product Design 2021.

This marks the eighth consecutive year the company has won an iF Design Award and the tenth straight year winning a Red Dot Award. It is also the first time a Yamaha Motor industrial robot has received either of these.

High space efficiency and productivity

The LCMR200 is a linear conveyor using a modular construction and consists of a linear motor that delivers high-speed, high-precision movements and a slider for loading and transferring work pieces. The sliders can all move independently, and because assembly work can be performed on the slider itself and the work then transferred as-is, the LCMR200 greatly improves space efficiency and achieves high productivity.

It also yields greater freedom for line construction and enables fast production changes. The motor driver is built into the thin, single-piece module body made of anodized aluminium, which beautifully harmonizes with surrounding factory equipment, and the design also reduces wiring work.
