Elau has received certification for its PacDrive P4 Delta 3 robot mechanics. The Fraunhofer Institute IPA conducted a comprehensive series of tests to confirm that even at full capacity, P4 meets the requirements for a Class 6 cleanroom. This is confirmation from an established and well recognized source that the product is suitable for many demanding applications in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetics industries. The robot is made almost completely of stainless steel. It uses stainless steel for parts that have been kinematically optimized to ensure maximum torque. Stainless steel offers advantages because it prevents environmental contamination from particles dislodged by impact during damage or even destruction of kinematics components, for example in a crash.
