Line
gantry robot
For a wide variety of tasks, igus offers robot portals as surface, line and
room portals. igus portals contain pre-configured drylin linear modules and
linear axes with igus stepper motors as well as all components required for
self-assembly.
Application examples
Typical applications of our drylin® line portal robots are pick and place,
conveyor belt picking and stacking tasks. Most of the time they provide the
platform on which our customers build their application. For example, a gripper
can be mounted very easily to enable sorting tasks.
Y axis
consisting of: drylin® ZLW-0660 toothed belt axis, standard version, toothed
belt tension 150 N, feed 54 mm/rev, aluminum profile, surface: hard anodised,
PU toothed belt with steel tension, white, guide carriage with a length of 100
mm, aluminum traverse, driven by an igus NEMA23 size stepper motor in the
version with M12 connectors and encoder
Z axis
consisting of: drylin® GRW-0630 cantilever axis, feed 44 mm/rev, aluminum
profile, surface: hard anodized, traverse made of aluminum, driven by an igus
stepper motor in size NEMA17 in the version with M12 connectors and encoder.
Control system
The igus® Robot Control software enables simple and intuitive
robot control and programming and thus an easy entry into automation.
The modular structure makes it possible to control different igus kinematics,
such as delta robots. The portal robot can be controlled directly with all its
advantages by our igus® Robot Control.
The free and license-free igus robot control software is integrated into the
control and thus uses a uniform operating concept and consistent communication
services for many components of a system. This means less project
planning effort and faster commissioning.
The igus Robot Control is not part of the article and can be purchased from us
as an option. A master control is not necessary.
If you want to use your own (robot) controller, that's no problem either.
Alternatively, it is also possible to operate each axis individually with a
controller. For example with our igus® dryve D1 motor control. With this
control architecture, you need a motor control and an additional master control
for each linear axis or motor, which controls the coordination of the movement.
You then have to program the inverse kinematics for the delta robot yourself in
your development environment.
The motor controls are not part of the article and can be purchased from us as
an option. A master controller is currently not offered by igus.
Optional accessories
Cable set for 2-axis kinematics in 3, 5 or 10 m, igus® Robot Control for Gantry robots or Other dimensions available uponrequest sold
separately.
Additional Information
The maximum payload is up to 2.5 kg. Here, the Z-axis motor is heavily loaded
and wear increases. If you are unsure whether you can use the product as
desired, please contact us. With a technical design, we can offer you different
sizes with strokes of up to 6 m and a load capacity of 20 kg. Feel free to
contact us or use our Linear robot configurator (beta).
