Product Specification RobotWare for BaseWare OS 3.2
3.2 Advanced Motion 3.2
Contains functions that offer the following possibilities:
- Resetting the work area for an axis.
- Independent movements.
- Contour tracking.
- Coordinated motion with external manipulators.
Resetting the work area for an axis
The current position of a rotating axis can be adjusted a number of complete turns
without having to make any movements.
Examples of applications:
- When polishing, a large work area is sometimes needed on the robot axis 4 or
axis 6 in order to be able to carry out final polishing without stopping. Assume
that the axis has rotated 3 turns, for example. It can now be reset using this func-
tion, without having to physically rotate it back again. Obviously this will
reduce cycle times.
- When arc welding, the work object is often fitted to a rotating external axis. If
this axis is rotated more than one turn during welding, the cycle time can be
reduced because it is not necessary to rotate the axis back between welding
cycles.
Coordinated motion with multi-axis manipulators
Coordinated motion with multi-axis manipulators or robot carriers (gantries) requires
the Advanced Motion option. Note that simultaneous coordination with several single
axis manipulators, e.g. track motion and workpiece manipulator, does not require
Advanced Motion.
Note! There is a built-in general method for defining the geometry for a manipulator
comprising two rotating axes (see User’s Guide, Calibration). For other types of
manipulators/robot carriers, comprising up to six linear and/or rotating axes, a special
configuration file is needed. Please contact your nearest ABB Flexible Automation
Centre.
