Kawasaki's traversing base 7th axis is designed with the same high standards as our robots. The direct drive system consists of a rack and pinion and precision rail mechanism. The integrated motion control and servo system maintain accurate repeatability rates.
The traversing base is controlled by the robot's standard C controller, requiring no additional hardware. Available in track lengths from 1-20m with speeds up to 1,000 mm/sec. Each 7th axis is complete with a cable track system to support robot cables, that can be shrouded in harsh environments.
Special Features:
Modular construction.
Allows the ability to access difficult areas avoiding obstructions.
Using cooperative motion software, the transporter becomes a fully integrated axis of the robot.
Multi function panel controlled, just like the other robot axes.
Compatible with all applications which require extreme accuracy with precise path and velocity control.
Increased work envelope while maintaining repeatability.
Optional cable track system for tooling and peripheral equipment control.
