General DescriptionThe Servo Robot Training Systems are complete and affordable training systems that cover the programming and operation of industrial robots. Through the curriculum and hands-on exercises with the Servo Robot Training Systems, students learn to create automated work cells ideal for Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) and Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM).

The precision-built, articulated arm of the Servo Robot included with the system represents an important step in automation and handling. It is driven by servo motors equipped with optical encoders that provide feedback to the controller.

It can be controlled and programmed using a hand-held terminal or from a host computer running the RoboCIM 5250 Software or the Robotics software. The software gives students the opportunity to prepare their sequences within the 3D environment, simulate them, and then switch to control mode to perform the sequence in the real world.

The Servo Robot has five axes of rotation plus a gripper. All joints can be used simultaneously to perform a sequence of moves. The Servo Robot can be operated in the Articular mode, which allows each articulation to be controlled and moved independently, or it can be operated in the Cartesian mode, in which the gripper moves linearly, parallel to a specified axis.

Due to their modular design, the Servo Robot Training Systems allow connection with other equipment, such as the CNC Mill, to further expand the training capabilities.

Robot Controller Module

Robot Controller ModuleThe Robot Controller module is provided with TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) inputs for the monitoring of input devices; TTL outputs to communicate with other robot units or control external accessories such as a belt conveyor; relay outputs for the control of external accessories such as Signal

Tower, Model 5924; output ports for the control of external devices such as the Linear Slide or Rotary Carousel; and serial communication port for host control operation and for uploading and downloading programs.

The Robot Controller module is also equipped with CNC (Computerized Numerical Control) ports, which enable communication with other Automation CNC machines. This allows for a truly integrated flexible manufacturing system where the robot and CNC machines can operate in “wait” mode until contacted by other equipment. The Robot Controller also houses a USB port for program storage.

The Hand-Held Terminal connects to the Robot Controller via a serial communication port. It is used for programming points, saving programs, and general operation of the Servo Robot System.

RoboCIM 5250 Software and Robotics Software

Servo Robot SoftwareThe RoboCIM 5250 Software or Robotics software can be used in place of the Hand-Held Terminal. The Robotics software allows the user to point and click to move the Servo Robot and select points. The editing and labeling processes are very user-friendly. Furthermore, the capability of Robotics to create task programs allows the design of complex processes. With the RoboCIM 5250 Software, the motion of the Servo Robot can be controlled or simulated. The software provides a three-dimensional virtual environment and an easy-to-use interface allowing students to easily learn the fundamentals of robotics. Two programming modes are available: an

intuitive icon programming mode and a text programming mode to create more complex tasks.
