ROBOT SYSTEM
SERIES 5150
Model 5149 – Pneumatic Feeder Controller
The Pneumatic Feeder Controller is used to control the
Pneumatic Feeders, Models 5122 and 5142. It includes
a pneumatic valve, which supplies compressed air to the
Pneumatic Feeders. The operation of the Pneumatic
Feeder Controller is controlled by the microswitches in the
feeder and storage sections of the Pneumatic Feeders. This
module requires a compressed-air supply (available from a
local air supply or from the optional Air Compressor, Model
6410-C).
Model 5150-A – Robot
The Robot has five axes of rotation plus a gripper. It is driven
by stepper motors that provide precision movements of the
articulations. All joints can be used simultaneously to perform
a programmed move sequence. Movements of the joints are
accomplished by belts through a series of gears, while the
gripper mechanism is activated by cables and belt-driven
pulleys. The Robot comes with a large base which allows
it to be placed on a regular work table.
