Cubic-S

Product catalog summary

Overview: The CUBIC-S is an intelligent safety module designed for robot motion monitoring, offering eight distinct functions to enhance automation safety. It allows for space-efficient application cells and facilitates man-machine interfaces without the need for additional costly safety equipment. The module is TÜV certified to Cat. 3 standards.

Key Functions:

Motion Area Monitoring: Customizable boundaries are set and monitored electronically, stopping the robot if these are breached.
Axis Monitoring: Each robot axis is monitored with predefined limits, stopping the robot if these are exceeded.
Speed Monitoring: Shuts down the robot if it exceeds a set speed, typically 250 mm/s.
Stop Monitoring: Ensures robot axes and up to three external axes remain stopped as required by safety specifications.
Tool Orientation Monitoring: Stops the robot if the tool's orientation deviates from predefined areas.
Protective Stop: Works with safety devices like light curtains to stop the robot, offering three stop categories for different scenarios.
Emergency Stop: Immediately stops the robot when the emergency stop button is pressed, with options for stop categories 0 and 1.
Safety State Output: Provides status updates on all safety functions and inputs.

Sample Applications:

Process Planning: Utilizes Motion Area Monitoring to manage worker access during process planning.
Inspection or Assembly: Uses Stop Monitoring to hold parts securely while allowing worker access for inspection or assembly.
Cell Optimization: Employs Motion Area Monitoring to minimize application cell sizes.

Limitations: Only compatible with Kawasaki external axes, not combinable with all software options, and not available with E7x controller.

Safety Precautions: Operators must adhere to all safety regulations and consult manuals and safety documents. For special applications or issues, contact Kawasaki Robotics.

Contact Information: Kawasaki Robotics GmbH in Germany and Kawasaki Robotics (UK) Ltd. in the UK are available for inquiries.
