Effortless robot programming and flexible automation platforms which can be installed quickly are the focus of KraussMaffei Automationstechnik at K2013 in Düsseldorf (October 16-23, Hall 15, B27 / C24 / C27 / D24). The core competence ranges from linear devices for simpler pick & place applications to complex, customer-specific production units with industry robots or a combination.
More than just a control cabinet – the MC6 control system Unique to the market – the injection molding machines can also be programmed and moved using the robot control panel (handheld pendant). This particular advantage of the MC6 was made possible by integrating the robot user interfaces in the machine control system. Machines and robots can be programmed and operated from every control cabinet. This mutual access makes the operator's work on complex and large production cells easier and saves him walking around the machine.
Robot programming with "WizardX" – clear and transparent For the linear robot with the MC6 control system from KraussMaffei there is the "WizardX," a new online programming assistant, in addition to the proven offline programming tool. "The programming of robots has never been so easy," explains Frank Peters, Vice President of Sales at KraussMaffei. "Intuitive operator guidance offers the user effective assistance during programming - quick and simple in just 4 steps."
With help of the clearly structured graphic interface basic programs can be created and also learned in a very short space of time without any programming knowledge. An error-free programming code is created for the robot, which can then be adjusted simply and individually to the respective application. The compact design of the new handheld pendant for the LRX series delivers high performance. The perfect ergonomics and lightweight design facilitate the work of the operator.
