Product information
Optionally available
Flat 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® area portal robots are pick and place,
conveyor belt picking and stacking tasks in two-dimensional space. In most
cases, the area portal robot offers the platform on which our customers build
their application. In the case of area portal robots, these are often
structures that are used to inspect components, for example in quality
assurance.
X axis
consisting of: two drylin® ZLW-1040 toothed belt axes, ECO version, toothed
belt tension 75 N, feed rate 66 mm/rev, aluminum profile, surface: clear
anodised, neoprene toothed belt, black, guide carriage with a length of 100 mm,
traverse made of plastic, driven by an igus NEMA23 size stepper motor with
stranded wire and JST connector (without encoder), mechanically synchronized by
an AWMP-10 line shaft
Y axis
Consisting of: drylin® ZLW-1040 toothed belt axis, ECO version, toothed belt
tension 75 N, feed rate 66 mm/rev., aluminum profile, surface: clear anodised,
neoprene toothed belt, black, guide carriage with a length of 100 mm, traverse
made of plastic, driven by an igus stepper motor in size NEMA23 with stranded
wire and JST connector (without encoder)
Control system
The igus® RobotControl 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.
It is 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 in3, 5 or 10 m, igus® RobotControl for Gantry robots or Otherdimensions available upon request sold separately.
Further information
In addition, other strokes up to 3 m are available as standard and after
technical testing also up to 6 m and 100 kg.
If you are unsure whether you can use the product as desired, please contact us
or use our Linear
robot configurator (beta).
