We offer 110lb positioner, 400lb positioner, and 2, 4, and 6 meter length linear rail options which can be mounted right side up or upside down.
Each positioner comes complete with:
- URCap software
- Robot controller connections
- Positioner cabinet
- Safety connection for laser scanners and light curtains
- Servo amplifier, servo, and connection cables
- NEW Coordinated Motion Software: Universal Robots Coordinated Motion software facilitates the synchronization and coordination between the robot arm and the rotational positioner. It allows the robot to control the movement and positioning of the positioner, ensuring that it rotates and aligns with the workpiece accurately in relation to the welding torch. The TCP moving within the frame part, with the robot and external axis reaching the targeted position(s) simultaneously. Coordinated motion is the combination of Time Synchronization and Frame Tracking (seen below).
- Time synchronization: the robot and axis group move simultaneously and complete their desired motions at the same time. For example: the TCP of a robot's welding torch must reach its programmed waypoint at the same time as the programmed pose of a welding part positioner. Synchronizing the timing of the part positioner is accomplished by varying its axes velocities.
- Frame tracking: the robot adjusts its trajectory at each timestep based on the instantaneous joint positions of the axis group. For example: the TCP of the robot's welding torch needs to follow a trajectory in the moving frame of a welding part positioner. This is accomplished with frame tracking.
