1 Overview

Circular arc tracking function

1.2.2.
With the circular arc tracking function, the example of the system that can be achieved is shown as following.
Table 1-3 Example of system that can be achieved by the circular arc tracking function
No.
1 A robot can catch the workpieces moving on a circular arc conveyer while tracking.
A robot can decorate (processing) the workpieces moving on a circular arc conveyer while
2
tracking.
A robot can attach the parts (assembling) with the workpieces moving on a circular arc
3
conveyer while tracking.
A robot can catch the workpieces moving on a circular arc conveyer while tracking, and a
4
robot places the workpieces while tracking to marking on a straight line conveyer.
5 The tracking is done with an encoder of line driver (differential motion) output type.
6 The tracking is done with an encoder of voltage output/open collector type.
Note1)
Note1) To use D type products (excluding the RV-5AS-D) or R type products in this system, the Encoder
distribution unit (2F-YZ581) is required. Please refer to the Encoder Distribution Unit Manual
(BFP-A3300) for details.
