SVAW-850S is an injection-molding take-out robot. Start with your mold, complete gripping load and safe removal path, then check the published travel and press range against the actual cell.
Manufacturer data with selection guidance for buyers.
Manufacturer data
Published specifications
The SHIP SVAW-850S is a three-axis servo traverse robot for injection molding part extraction. The manufacturer lists a telescopic arm structure, a maximum load of 5 kg and compatibility with injection molding machines in the 120–300 ton range. Published linear travel is 850 mm vertically, 730 mm crosswise and 1350 mm along the traverse axis. The catalog states a minimum take-out time of 1.5 seconds; the actual cycle depends on the mold, part and installation. Confirm the complete end-of-arm tooling load and machine interface before selection. The image shows the corresponding product family.

Start with the molded part and removal path
The SVAW-850S is published as a three-axis telescopic-arm arrangement for injection-molding take-out. This page concerns removal and transfer; it does not establish suitability for every assembly, trimming or packaging task after release.
The stated 5 kg load is a shortlist limit to clarify with the supplier. Put the gripper, adapters, hoses and retained part into the load schedule. Ask whether that rating includes the complete installed tooling and what centre-of-gravity and acceleration conditions apply. Press clamping force does not describe the mold opening or the available pickup pose.

What the headline parameters mean
| Published item / decision | How to use it | Limit to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| 850 mm vertical travel | Check pickup depth, raised clearance and mold opening together. | Travel is not clearance at every pose. |
| 730 mm cross travel / 1,350 mm traverse | Plot the part pickup and deposit locations relative to the proposed mount. | An adequate stroke does not prove the gripper avoids tie bars. |
| 120–300 ton press range | Provide the press model, mounting drawing and mold envelope. | Tonnage alone does not establish mechanical compatibility. |
| 1.5 s minimum extraction time | Ask for the conditions and timing start/stop points used. | Extraction time is not the complete molding or cell cycle. |
Record scope: [S1]
Build the take-out sequence before selecting tooling
- Mark press-ready, mold-open and robot-entry signals on a shared sequence diagram. Include loss-of-signal and restart states.
- Define approach, grip confirmation, removal and retreat positions using the actual mold and the largest retained part.
- Choose a release position that supports the part without deforming it; include hot surfaces, runners and any downstream check.
- Demonstrate manual recovery after a failed grip or interrupted cycle, with access conditions established by the integrator.
Separate the robot from the delivered cell
| Published item / decision | How to use it | Limit to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Base robot and controls | Exact controller, software version, travel arrangement and mounting kit. | The listing is not an orderable bill of materials. |
| End-of-arm tooling | Gripper layout, total mass, retained-part method and grip confirmation. | Gripper, sensors and adapters are not assumed included. |
| Press interface and guarding | Signal list, mechanical drawings, safety functions and validation responsibility. | Three axes do not define the required safety performance. |
| Installation and support | Utilities, commissioning, training, spares and destination support. | A product image does not prove delivery scope. |
SVAI or SVAW: compare the arrangement before the rating
The published SVAI-850S and SVAW-850S share the stated 850 / 730 / 1,350 mm travel and 120–300 ton press range. The SVAI record states 4 kg and single-arm construction; SVAW states 5 kg and telescopic construction. Those differences do not show that one is automatically faster, more compact in the installed cell, or more reliable.
Ask for the mounted envelope in both parked and working positions, tooling allowance, press interface and timing conditions for the same mold. A telescopic description does not replace a dimensioned clearance drawing. Keep commercial scope and acceptance criteria identical when comparing quotes.

Accept the part, the recovery and the sustained cycle
When the proposal or trial does not match the task
Use this checklist to agree checks with the responsible supplier or integrator. It is procurement guidance, not an instruction to bypass guards, interlocks or the equipment manual.
| Published item / decision | How to use it | Limit to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| The parked telescopic arm obstructs access | Request the mounted dimensions in parked and working positions, including cable routing and tooling. | A telescopic description does not establish the installed clearance. |
| A heavier gripper slows the sequence | Review the complete mounted load and motion conditions, not only retained-part mass. | The 5 kg statement has loading conditions to clarify; it is not a cycle guarantee. |
| The downstream release waits for a conveyor | Define ready/busy/fault signals and measure the actual complete-cycle delays. | Do not compare the catalog extraction minimum with sustained cell output. |
Resolve the supplied configuration and drawing
The family heading uses a wider press range than this model row. Use the SVAW-850S row, 120–300 ton, rather than transferring the family heading to this model. The supplier also publishes a model dimension table; resolve its lettered drawing against the actual press mount before treating a travel figure as installation clearance.

A useful inquiry for this take-out robot
Your inputs · local calculation
Measure output over the same observation window
Use actual completed/first-pass accepted tasks from one observation window. For a molding trial count accepted take-outs, for the AGV count completed transport tasks. Include stops, queues, charging or interventions in the elapsed time; do not count rework as first-pass acceptance.
Enter your project inputs to calculate. No inputs are uploaded or saved.
Formula: completed/accepted count ÷ observation minutes × 60; accepted/completed fraction = completed/accepted count ÷ total attempts × 100. This is your observed task record, not a supplier specification.
Compare competing proposals on the same basis
Ask each bidder to answer these items against the same drawings, parts and operating sequence. An unanswered item is a comparison gap, not a passed requirement.
| Decision | Documents to request | Check before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| 5 kg maximum load | Supplier-confirmed rating scope and the complete part, tool and attachment schedule. | Any assembly below 5 kg is approved for any path. |
| Telescopic arrangement | The exact arm and mounting drawing with clearances through the full travel. | Telescopic means a known installed-height reduction. |
| Machine compatibility | The machine model, mold opening, mounting position and interface requirements. | The listed 120–300 ton range establishes compatibility by itself. |
| 1.5 s minimum take-out | A statement of included motion and a representative complete-cycle demonstration. | The catalog minimum includes gripping and every placement operation. |
Use arm form and load as separate decisions
If the brief rules out the 4 kg entry by the supplier’s rating definition, ask whether the 5 kg SVAW configuration resolves that constraint. Do not assume it resolves mounting, load distribution or tool geometry at the same time. Those questions need their own documented response.
A telescopic arm may prompt a different installation drawing, but the directory does not publish the overhead envelope or a quantified clearance advantage. Compare the supplied drawings and access requirements rather than making a dimensional claim from the arm label.
Worked sourcing brief
Worked example for planning a quotation.
Assume a mold is installed beneath restricted overhead services and the proposed carried assembly is 4.4 kg. The mass screen directs the buyer to review the 5 kg entry, while the overhead constraint requires a separate mounting study. Request the exact SVAW arm drawing and clearance through extension and recovery. This example does not prove clearance or approve the carried assembly.
What to record before acceptance
Agree the test method, responsibilities and pass conditions before ordering. The items below are records to request, not a completed validation.
- Retain the telescopic arm drawing and the machine and mold revisions used for review.
- Record the complete carried load and SHIP’s stated conditions for the proposed configuration.
- Compare take-out timing only with the documented mold, tooling, discharge and interface sequence.
Buyer questions
Can SVAW replace SVAI without changing the installation?
Interchangeability is not established here. Confirm the mounting, interface, arm envelope and tool requirements for both models.
Should I choose it only because its rated load is higher?
Use the full brief. A higher load does not by itself answer the machine layout or production-cycle requirements.
