- Fully programmable PLC according to IEC 61131-3
- Control functions in familiar programming language
- Close integration between PLC and robot function

Easy communication
The PLC can be used as main-PLC to
control the machine sequences. Robot programs can be uploaded,
started and stopped from the PLC-program via a pre-defined
interface.
Precise control
Due to the close connection with the
PLC the functions of the robot control can be extended by
performance. No matter whether one wants to extend the control
to the periphery of the robot or you want to extend the robot
control with additional process functions, all events between
the path control and the PLC can be exchanged swiftly and
directly.
Extendable robot operating system
Key parts of the robot's operating
system are available as pre-fabricated application modules
and can be easily changed if required. Possible are adjustments
to the operating modes, the manual traversing function or
the program start.
Performance-orientated technology
library
Appropriate blocks are available for
every field of application, while a corresponding arithmetic
library can be used for position calculations in the robot
program.
Adjustable sets of commands
KeMotion robot controls are fitted
with a set of commands that were created within the application.
Manufacturers wishing to develop specific features of the
control can therefore adjust the set of commands to optimally
fit their applications.
PLCopen motion blocks
Motion function
blocks built according to PLCopen are available for the control
of auxiliary axes. They cover positioning commands, electronic
gearing and the cam group. With these blocks he can control
all the axes of the robot.
Backwards traversing on the path
Any section of a path already traversed
can be re-traversed forwards or backwards in manual mode with
a restart to allow a quick check and correction of the Teach-In
points. |
