As a key element of the RCE control system, the unique teach pendant K6 assembles all the control functions of the RCE control system. No additional keyboard is necessary.
The industrial design award winning lightweight teach pendant is made out of a high resistant plastic mould and a keyboard panel at topside with an embedded LCD touch screen. The sensible buttons are palpable to enable the operator to touch and feel each button even with working gloves on, compared to a touch screen display. The revolutionary and widely favoured shape of the teach pendant allows a right hand and left operation as well as many other holding positions.
A clear and simple display of each axis button allows the operator a distinctive movement of each axis without pushing the wrong axis button my mistake. A courser block offers easy navigation in the RCE software menus and replaces any necessary mouse.
The control PC uses Windows 10 embedded and Linux embedded. The transfer of process data relevant to security takes place with Saftey over EtherCAT (FSoE).
