KeTop T10 directMove

Operate robots easily and quickly with intuitive gestures

New era of mobile robot operation

The KeTop T10 directMove enables intuitive teach-in in a new and revolutionary way. Robot paths are jogged easily by simple gestures. Complex abstraction and complicated thought processes in coordinate systems can be omitted.

It is easier and more efficient – both for experienced operators as well as for new users. The time required and the associated costs are minimized considerably, and operational errors are reduced effectively.

Show the robot the way

Using the inertial sensors of the 6D Inertial Measurement Unit (6D IMU), the KeTop T10 directMove detects its position and direction in the three-dimensional space. The operator can therefore easily specify the required movement or rotation by indicating in the direction of motion and then operating a small joystick – regardless of his/her position relative to the robot.

This means that no in-depth knowledge of coordinate systems is required. The motion speed can be changed via the intensity of the joystick movements. This means that individual path points can be set and finely adjusted using the KeTop T10 directMove. If required, standard operating units and screen devices such as notebooks can also be used for programming.

Maximum flexibility

through four operating modes

directMove mode: the robot follows the direction instructions from the KeTop T10 directMove completely free in space.
snap2grid mode: use of defined coordinate systems as reference directions for the KeTop T10 directMove for precisely directed movements of the robot.

virtual handle mode: the KeTop T10 directMove acts as a virtual handle on the Tool Center Point to change its alignment quickly and easily.
axial movement mode: for the direct movement of individual robot axes as with a conventional handheld operating device.

Maximum operational safety

The KeTop T10 guarantees maximum safety for man and machine. Emergency stop and 3-stage enabling switches guarantee the same high safety standard as with classic handheld pendants.

In addition, special safety functions that can be executed at each controller prevent the robot from following fast, unintended movements of the KeTop T10 directMove. Excessively fast moved robot joints are locked.
