Follow on Google News | ABB Robotics introduces a new generation of workpiece positionersABB raises the bar once again for workpiece positioners used in robotic applications as it introduces nine new and improved models to take on heavier parts and manipulate them with greater accuracy than ever before.
By: ABB Robotics Employing the same drive systems and software as the ABB robots, the positioners are very easy to use and integrate, and have clear, simple instructions for programming. Each of the positioner’s axes are fully coordinated with the robot during programming and operation. As the positioners operate, the robot system automatically optimizes speed and performance by taking advantage of maximum acceleration. Shorter cycle times The new range of workpiece positioners allows cycle time to be kept to a minimum with dynamic modelling software. The dynamic model automatically compensates for the effects of gravity, inertia and friction. The built-in Load Identification function (Load ID) calculates both the center of gravity and the inertia of the workpiece and fixture. These calculations ensure fast movements with rapid acceleration, re-orientation and accuracy when following programmed paths. This results in shorter cycle times, increased productivity and consistent high quality of finished parts. Service-friendly ABB workpiece positioners can also be supplied with all necessary safety equipment - and with a modular design and just a few robust moving parts, these service-friendly positioners require very little maintenance. # # # About ABB ABB (www.abb.com) About ABB Robotics ABB Robotics (www.abb.com/ End
