Manufacturer
Mitsubishi Electric
Japanese electronics and industrial automation manufacturer whose MELFA robots are built to integrate tightly with its own PLCs and motion controllers.
Mitsubishi Electric entered industrial robotics under the MELFA brand, leveraging its existing strength in programmable logic controllers and factory automation equipment.
The MELFA lineup includes compact RV-series six-axis arms, RH-series SCARA robots for high-speed assembly, and the ASSISTA collaborative robot for shared workstations.
A key selling point is integration: MELFA robots are designed to work smoothly alongside Mitsubishi's PLCs, HMIs, and CNC controls in plants already standardized on that ecosystem.
Mitsubishi's robotics business is smaller than the largest Japanese competitors but maintains a loyal following in electronics and general factory automation.
