ROBUST, FIELD-PROVEN, LIFE TESTED
Every Motoman positioner product is developed following ISO 9001 procedures, so products adhere to a strict international standard of quality. Released products are dedicated to a unique Life Test area, where continuous life cycle testing of half a million dollars worth of equipment is performed 24/7/365. This ongoing effort represents more than 80 years of testing time, and is designed to identify potential problems before they occur in the field.
Even details like weld grounds were engineered and life-tested for reliability, especially for the demands of multiple robots. Many Motoman positioners sold more than 20 years ago are still in production and some have even been redeployed with new robots.
NOT SURE WHICH POSITIONER IS RIGHT FOR YOUR PROJECT?
MOTOSIZE™
While many companies only provide payload information about their positioners, Motoman provides additional critical parameters, including cycle dwell time, load inertia, load CG overhang, torque, acceleration and moment.
Motoman's published payload ratings are conservative and it is often possible to exceed these ratings. Depending on the application, either the bearings, gear reducer or motor might be limiting factors. More than 30 variables are factored in when calculating whether a particular positioner is appropriate for a specific application.
MotoSize software allows users to enter their unique application and tooling parameters and then automatically generates a report that graphically displays a list of available Motoman positioners that conform to all application criteria. Application data can be graphed by holding torque (load CG off-center), by rated bearing moment (load CG overhang) and by allowable load inertia.
SPIN-OFF TECHNOLOGY
As a spin-off to our positioner technology, Motoman developed MotoMount™ - a patent-pending system used to mount fixturing between headstocks and tailstocks. This innovative design reduces the stresses in the bearings from moment loading; reduces cost by eliminating the need for machined bases, spanners and precision tailstocks; improves tooling repeatability; and facilitates easy and quick fixture changeover.
Motoman also has patents pending on unique light-tight enclosures for laser processing.
CUSTOMER SUPPORT
Competitors often reference only a payload capacity for their positioners. Motoman's experience has proven that other considerations are also critical; therefore, all Motoman positioners have published specifications for payload, turning torque and repeatability.
Motoman offers free MotoSize software to help integrators or end-users select a positioner by entering specific application requirements. The software outputs a graphical report that indicates exactly where the application falls in the performance range.
Motoman recognizes that system uptime is dependent upon the positioner as well as the robot. Motoman uses the same motors to drive the robots and positioners, so spares are always available. Additionally, Motoman tries to use reducers common to the robots; otherwise, long lead-time items are kept in stock.
