| HISTORY | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Motoman has extensive worldwide experience integrating servo-controlled positioners and tracks into a broad range of robotic solutions. For more than 20 years, Motoman positioners and transporters have provided unmatched speed, accuracy, robustness and reliability. They use the same field-proven motor controls as Motoman robots and are manufactured to the same exacting standards. Motoman also leads in control technology with multi-tasking software that allows coordination between multiple robots, base axes and multi-axis positioners. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| DESIGN | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Motoman offers the widest selection of positioners, designed to meet a broad range of industrial positioning needs. Determining which positioner is best for a particular application requires more than just sizing a motor to a gearbox. Other factors include: ■ Ensuring that inertia characteristics match between the motor, input drive and output drive ■ Motor torque curve and acceleration/deceleration rates ■ Reducer backlash ■ Bearing loading Motoman has developed MotoSize software that factors in more than 30 variables relating to performance requirements. MotoSize is used to determine the best positioner for a specific application. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| APPROACH | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Engineering started by creating modules for Motoman Headstock (MH) drives. These compact housings have multiple mounting points so they can be used as headstocks, tables or at angles in between. Features like weld grounds and safety-rated position switches are integrated into the housings. Motoman has extended this product line every year with new drive modules and positioner configurations that use these modules. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| RESULT | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Motoman has the most extensive line of positioner products of any robotics company, with positioners for a wide range of markets, including: ■ Automotive - high-speed positioners that index medium payloads in 2-3 seconds ■ Construction machinery - heavy-duty positioners that handle heavy parts or require the robot to be positioned ■ Job shops - economical positioner solutions that index in 4-6 seconds Motoman easily adapts to unique requirements by combining modules into custom-tailored solutions or using standard products from our parent company, Yaskawa Electric Corporation, and our European partners. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
