The CS series Cartesian axis robot is schematized in the figure to the right.
The machine can be supplied with any combination of Cartesian axes.
The vertical Z axis can be telescopic if the strokes are high, so as to reduce the dimensions of the robot.
The U, W, and J rotations can be controlled by servomotors or, if there are only two positions,
it is possible to mount pneumatic actuators.
Cartesian axes can have independent positioning or can be interpolated
(linearly, circularly or with particular curves).
Complex interpolation forms are obtained using axes cards.
Cartesian robots serie CS can be supplied in 4 different sizes:
Light size with a payload of 10 kg at the wrist
Medium size, with a payload of 50 kg at the wris
Heavy size, with a payload of 100 kg at the wrist
The position feedback is obtained by the resolver or encoder of the motor.
For applications in which high accuracy is required in the repetition of the positioning,
the position feedback can be achieved with optical scales.
All the models described above can be supplied in an economic version for applications with limited performance.
Sanyo stepper motors with RTA drives are installed in light-weight machines.
In the other versions inverters and three-phase asynchronous motors with LENZE encoders are mounted.
Beside it is depicted a light series Cartesian 4-axis machine used for a machine tool tending.
The control of the system was carried out with a CNC.
The cartesian coordinate robots can be supplied in the following configurations:
Basic supply of axes only, no motors, no sensors and no electrical system
Supply as in point 1 plus support frame
Supply as in point 1 plus electric panel with PLC (Siemens, Omron or Lenze)
or CNC, HMI touch screen 7" color, motors and drives, sensors
Supply as in point 3 more control and command software
