Every robot system has its own compact, modular robot controller, which contains the CPU and the power electronics for controlling the robot.
Mitsubishi Electric's robot controllers have a particularly slim, compact design. For example, the footprint of the CR1 controller is barely as large as a DIN A4 sheet of paper. The individual controllers differ only in their dimensions and the power stage, the other features and functions are all identical. This makes life much easier for the user: No matter which Mitsubishi robot you use the programming language and options are always the same.
Standard functions of the robot controllers:
- Easy-to-learn control instruction set
- Axis, linear and 3D circular interpolation
- Subroutines
- Execute up to 32 programs simultaneously
- Integrated math functions
- Integrated palletising functions
- Interrupt handling
- Compliance Control function
- Tracking (conveyor belt synchronisation)
- Easy integration of all camera types
