It uses standard IEC programming controls for robotic functions and features dynamic belt synchronization for multiple conveyors as well as integrated vision system interface. With more than 100 ready-to-use kinematics for Delta, SCARA, and Cartesian style robots, unit offers full 6-axis path planner.
Powerful Motion, Logic and Robot Control in Rexroth IndraMotion MLC
[12/05/2007]
Rexroth's latest IndraMotion MLC controller combines motion and logic with robotic control on a uniform IEC platform. The new MLC lowers automation costs considerably, and is capable of up to 64 axes of control with the ability to handle up to eight robotic kinematics simultaneously.
(Hoffman Estates, IL - www.boschrexroth-us.com) Bosch Rexroth's IndraMotion MLC Motion Logic controller is now available with powerful embedded robotic capabilities. The MLC controller uses standard IEC programming controls rather than proprietary programs for the robotic functions. This allows for greater flexibility and increased use of robots in factory applications.
With more than 100 ready-to-use kinematics for Delta, SCARA and Cartesian style robots, the Rexroth MLC control offers a full six-axis path planner, with the ability to run multiple kinematics at the same time. Features include up to 64 axes of control, dynamic belt synchronization for multiple conveyors, and integrated vision system interface. A kinematic wizard is available for easy configuration. This control platform uses an all Ethernet-based SERCOS III network as standard drive interface and for HMI and vision system integration.
Bosch Rexroth AG, part of the Bosch Group, achieved sales of approximately $6.2 billion (4.9 billion Euro) in 2006 with over 29,800 employees. Under the brand name of Rexroth the company offers all drive and control technologies, from mechanics, hydraulics and pneumatics to electronics and associated service. Over 500,000 customers worldwide utilize Rexroth's unique technological know-how to implement their innovative and future-oriented systems and machine concepts. The global player, represented in over 80 countries, is an extensive supplier of components and systems for industrial and factory automation and mobile applications.
