Robot not included.
The first ever collaborative 7th axis, the Movotrak Cobot Transfer Unit (CTU) features collision detection settings for groundbreaking programming and control benefits. A plug-and-play system for quick and easy implementation into various robotic functions, Movotrak CTU adds a horizontal operating range up to 10 m to significantly boost productivity and output. Compatible with even the largest sized cobots on the market, the 7th axis slide offers flexible mounting options, and features a dual-linear-unit design for precise linear motion, and maximum moment load and stiffness.
Includes: Dual linear units, Kollmorgen servo motor, precision gearhead, carriage mounting plate for robot, Freedrive paddles, end-of-stroke limit switches, cable management, control box and software with 7th axis collision detection. For Fanuc CRX robots, a Plug-In is available for interacting directly with the Fanuc Teach Pendant.
Gerry Perez from FANUC America is joined by Kyle Thompson from Thomson (A Regal Rexnord brand) to discuss their innovative 7th axis solution. This brief video highlights how the integration of mechanical components from Regal Rexnord brands Thomson, Kollmorgen, Micron and Huco creates a convenient plug-and-play system for collaborative robots (cobots). They explore the ease of use, collision detection functionality and successful applications in fields like lab automation, machine tending, welding and more.
