The tracking function allows a robot to follow workpieces moving on a
conveyer with high speed and accuracy. With this function, it becomes
possible to transport line up and process workpieces without having to stop
the conveyer.
The conveyer tracking allows a robot to follow workpieces lining up on a
turntable and a circular arc conveyer. With this function, it becomes possible
to transport, process workpieces.
The conveyer tracking allows a robot to follow workpieces lining up on a
conveyer. With this function, it becomes possible to transport, process
workpieces.
The vision tracking allows a robot to follow workpieces not lining up on a
conveyer. With this function, it becomes possible to transport line up and
process workpieces.
Physical encoder numbers a number of the encoder physically allocated
according to a certain rule.
The physical encoder number change to the logical encoder number by
parameter "EXTENC". The purpose of this is to change freely number by the
parameter for the encoder physically arranged. This logical encoder number
is used with the instruction and the state variable of the robot program.
SKIP input is an input for receiving signal from vision sensor.
