Motoman robots with Rockwell Automation PACs

End users of robotic automation can deploy and support a broad range of Motoman robots with their existing staff and take ownership of their robotic applications.

MLX200 enhances our previous MLX100 technology by optimizing the robot motion software; it now consumes significantly less PAC resources, while enabling even more application possibilities by adding multi-robot control and ability to control robots through ControlLogix? and CompactLogix? platforms.

The robots are programmed through intuitive Add-On-Instructions (AOIs) within RSLogix? / Studio 5000? Logix Designer environment. Optimum performance is maintained using proven kinematics solutions. A wide range of 4- to 7-axes robots with payloads from 5-300 kilograms are available on this platform.

MLX200 Advantages
*MLX200 features a unified controls architecture; a PAC controls the entire application, including the robots.
*The robot does not require a separate programming language or controller.
*Panel-mounted robot drives can be integrated into the main control cabinet resulting in reduced hardware, reduced floor space and a reduction in spare parts.
*Simplified hardware and controls architecture eliminate redundant interfaces.
*Familiar controls environment (ControlLogix or CompactLogix) and programming environment (RSLogix? 5000 v19 or above). *These user-friendly and maintenance-friendly systems make it easier to train, troubleshoot, diagnose and solve problems in the field.
*Faster time-to-market. A single application development environment reduces system complexity because there is one programmer and a simplified control scheme.
*Applicable to a variety of applications and environments. MLX200 provides seamless robot integration for a wide range of compatible Motoman robots.
