Description
|
R17 is a low cost entry to robotics, fast, accurate and reliable and easy to program with a long reach and a large and much more useful workspace than comparable machines. The mechanics are simple and phenomenally reliable. There are Mk1 R17s in service that have been running 3 shifts a day for 12 years without failure; in fact we give a 2 year warranty. |

|
The latest version uses new light weight, high speed, high efficiency hybrid stepping motors micro-stepped for both power and speed and for low speed precision when required. Each motion of the robot is monitored by the encoders that stop all motion in the event of a collision or other problem. The package includes the multi-processor robot controller with ROBOFORTH II embedded software that we maintain is the easiest of any robot software from any manufacturer.
"..We were all very impressed with how quickly we could get going with the robot system (especially Robwin and ROBOFORTH) and I'll definitely come straight back to you next time we need a robot arm!.."

note1: repeatability measured as a standard deviation of all 3 dimensions at 100% speed and zero payload over 24 hours after a 1 hour warming up period. Figures for ISO 9283 available on request. note2: maximum speed is only reached after the acceleration ramp. R17HS has twice the acceleration of the standard version so is more likely to reach maximum speed for short moves. robotics within reach
