New EPSON six-axis robot with RC520 PC-based controller

April 7, 2010 By Motion Control Tips Editor Leave a Comment

EPSON Factory Automation/Robotics (www.robots.epson.com) is proud to announce the new EPSON Pro-Six PS3-AS00 with RC520 PC-based controller, which caters the overwhelming requests from customers for a new manipulator to connect to extremely powerful, yet easy to use EPSON RC+ software and RC520 PC-based controller.

While the automation market is full of six-axis type applications, it became clear to the company what the market actually needed was a great control platform with a six-axis arm.

The latest EPSON Pro-Six PS3-AS00 utilizes the same EPSON RC520 PC-based controller that controls EPSON EZ Modules (“Linear Modules”) and E2 Series Robots (“SCARA”) thus allowing machine users to take advantage of a single control solution for the entire factory. With a 791-millimeter (“701-millimeter at the wrist center”) reach, high performance Sigma III-AC servo motors, the famous servo control from EPSON, and EPSON RC520 PC-based controller, the Pro-Six can solve even the most demanding six-axis type applications.

The EPSON Pro-Six PS3-AS00 high points features the same easy to use PC-based controls utilized with all EPSON Robots, a rigid design for smooth, high-speed motion with precise position settling and high-performance absolute encoders

Its compact design requires only minimal installation space and has ceiling, wall and floor mounting configurations. It has outstanding path control capabilities with two Pro-Six (“six-axis”) robots controllable from one RC520 controller and one Pro-Six (“six-axis”) robot plus two EPSON E2 SCARA Robots (“or 8 EZ modules axes”) controllable from one RC520 controller.

Also, the new EPSON Pro-Six PS3-AS00 high points features a high-performance EPSON Robots Servo Control which provides maximum performance, and has fully integrated EPSON RC+ Options (“Profibus, DeviceNet, Force Sensing, VB Guide, Vision Guide, etc.”). It meets the ANSI/RIA 15.06-1999 safety standard, as well as CE mark.
