The Buffalo
Blur's Proprietary High-Speed Indexing Chassis
.jpg)
Speed 300 cpm
Index Distance Shown 160 mm
Number of Carriers Shown 35
Nest Repeatability 10 micron
There are more than a dozen proprietary innovations in the design and control of The Buffalo. It is servo-driven, without mechanical indexers, and a wide variety of indexing distances are available. The indexing distance can be changed with the push of a button at the HMI. Nests can be added and removed with a minimum of disassembly.
The chassis is modular and can be supplied shorter and longer than the one shown in the photo, according to your needs. There is no real limit to the length, and the same 300 cpm speed can be comfortably provided at a conveyor length of 3600 mm, center-to-center.
The Buffalo is built for the long haul with the highest precision, workmanship, and quality. If you put your hand on the chassis, you won't even know it is running.
If 300 cycles per minute is not useful to you because your station operations are slower than that, we can help you. We specialize in high speed machine design and will gladly provide a turnkey solution.

The Bald Eagle
Blur's Proprietary 4-axis Manipulator

The Bald Eagle is due to hit the market in early 2023. It is a 4-axis manipulator with the same functionality as a SCARA robot, though it is not a SCARA, nor is it a spider robot. In any case, it is much faster.
The Bald Eagle is designed to be affixed directly to The Buffalo as an assembly station. It will perform pick and place operations, and other operations, very comfortably at 300 cpm, over a suitably large workspace (D=200mm, z=60 mm). There are no singularities within this workspace. The design of The Bald Eagle is completely unique.
Machine designers will be able to purchase The Buffalo chassis according to their specifications, and purchase The Bald Eagle for most, or many of, the assembly stations. Blur Machine Laboratory will gladly assist with Nest tooling, End Effector tooling, and other high-speed stations for which The Bald Eagle is not suited. Alternatively, Blur will gladly provide a turnkey solution for your factory.
