This system consists of a single station with complete protective housing, which secures the pivot range of the robot. The station is mechanically connected to the modular mechatronics system (mMS4.0).
The dimensions of the individual stations are smaller than 1350 x 1350 x 1900 (L x W x H). In order to ensure easy transport, the system consists of two individual stations which may not be wider than 675 mm (standard door, lift, vehicle).
The entire system has a maximum weight of 300 kg. The supply voltage is 230 V single-phase. All protective doors and the cell are equipped with safety technology. A safety circuit monitors the system.
The robot is operated with a handheld control panel with 3.8” display. The robot is designed as a 4-axis system (X-Y-Z axes, pivoting Z axis). The robot’s Z axis has a stroke of 400 mm and can execute 360° screwing movements. The robot is equipped with a pneumatic gripper.
The load capacity is 5 kg, repetition accuracy for positioning is +/- 0.02 mm for the X/Y/Z axes and +/- 0.03 degrees for the rotary axis. The system is programmed with an IEC 61131-3 PLC. The robot’s motions are fully programmable via the PLC. The whole system is completely assembled and delivered in fully functioning condition.
The PLC (industry standard) control provides some specific possibilities:
▶▶ PLC programming according to IEC61131-3: with the languages Instruction List, Ladder Diagram, Function Block Diagram, Sequential Function Chart, Structured Text.
Industry 4.0:
OpenCore Engineering enables direct reading of data from the PLC using high-level language programming, even parallel to a running PLC program (conversion of Big Data). An app is available to diagnose the PLC. The communication between the PLC and the robotic control takes place via PROFINET.
The following practice topics are addressed:
▶▶ Description of individual components and commissioning of a robotic system
▶▶ Basic knowledge to create programs; control types
▶▶ Creation of programs in a PLC programming environment (IEC 61131-3)
▶▶ Programming individual movements and motion sequences
▶▶ Gripping and positioning cube-shaped housings
▶▶ Teaching program points
▶▶ Programming the HMI to operate the robot via PLC
The exercises are available online.
Exercises with solutions are available to the trainer.
The work station includes:
▶▶ 4-axis swivel-arm robot
▶▶ Robot control with a PLC according to IEC61131-3
▶▶ Safety relay
▶▶ HMI for robot operation via PLC
▶▶ Housing cube, aluminum
▶▶ Housing cube, plastic, black
▶▶ Pins (for connecting the housing cubes)
▶▶ Pneumatic maintenance unit
▶▶ Pre-wired switch box
▶▶ Protective housing
The swivel-arm robot meets industry standards. So that students can recognize it in their future work, it is a robot that is used in real-world automation applications.
