ENGEL linear Robots – performance and efficiency
Traditionally the maximum speed and acceleration of the robot movements is designed for the maximum load-bearing capacity and the greatest possible strokes, but few applications fully exploit this spectrum. This is exactly where ENGEL comes in with multidynamic. When loads are lower and strokes shorter, ENGEL viper robots equipped with multidynamic move faster, thus enabling shorter cycle times.
The software belongs to the standard range of all ENGEL viper robots. It automatically controls the speed and acceleration as a function of the load, thus combining the shortest possible cycle times with the best possible precision, energy efficiency and service life of the mechanical components. The plant operator does not need to manually optimise the robot speed, a fact which accelerates the production process start-up.
