Yamaha to Showcases Next-Generation Robotics Technology

Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. is set to unveil a range of advanced factory-automation and transport technologies at the 2025 International Robot Exhibition (iREX), being held from 3–6 December in Tokyo.

Under the theme “μ to km – Robotics Transportation,” Yamaha will demonstrate how its latest robotics, mobility and automation systems work together to create smarter, more efficient production environments. The lineup spans everything from micron-accurate conveyor technology to autonomous vehicles capable of travelling across large factory sites.

Key Technologies on Display

Linear Conveyor Module (LCMR200)
Yamaha will showcase the fully updated LCMR200 system, including:

  • A new oval-type linear track
  • A high-payload version for heavier workpieces
  • A live demo paired with a surface-mounter
  • A cost-saving “slider return” system using the Free Module

Single-Axis Robots
|
A broad selection of Yamaha’s latest single-axis robots will be shown in motion, including:

  • Seven low-profile space-saving models
  • High-precision variants
  • Long-stroke units capable of up to 4,000 mm of travel

SCARA Robots
Yamaha will present real-world use cases and several demos, including:

  • The YK1200XG — able to move payloads up to 50 kg
  • A feeder-plus-2D-picking demo
  • New AI-driven technologies under development

New 7-Axis Collaborative Robot
The newly developed Yamaha 7-axis Cobot will make its exhibition debut.
Designed for smooth, fluid movement in tight workspaces, it can:

  • Reach around obstacles
  • Mount to AGVs and AMRs
  • Perform picking tasks using a 3D camera and AI-based object recognition

Autonomous Factory Transport
Yamaha will also demonstrate a combined system using:

  • A Yamaha AGV
  • The FG-01 autonomous outdoor-capable transport vehicle

Derived from Yamaha’s golf-car technology, the FG-01 can operate on wet, uneven or sloped surfaces.
It is also used in the eve auto service — a joint venture with TIER IV — to support automated logistics and relieve labour shortages in large factory environments.

Yamaha’s iREX 2025 exhibit highlights the company’s expanding capability in robotics, automation and smart-factory transport — areas central to its long-term vision of enabling people and industries to work smarter through advanced technology.
