RAIL/ROTARY
Robotmaster can be used to program a robot equipped with a linear rail and parts mounted on a rotary table. The rail and rotary can be used as indexers or in full simultaneous motion.

Advantages for programming additional axes
  • A linear rail and rotary table can be programmed automatically either as an indexer or for simultaneous 7 or 8 axis motion
  • Ability to manage and optimize rail/rotary axes
  • Flexible program output can automatically compensate for:
    • Fixed user frame
    • Dynamic user frame
    • Coordinated external motion
  • Rail or rotary positioning parameters can be used to easily control the robot configuration and posture for optimal trajectories
  • Ability to program and simulate up to 8-axis simultaneous motion
