System Configuration for Two Robots and Two Conveyors (Each Robot Runs on Individual Conveyor)

For about two picking operation lines that each line consists of one robot and one conveyor, you can control from one robot controller.

This page describes the system configuration and the details in the following sections.

System Configuration Layout

The above figure shows the configuration example of Vision Tracking system.

The above figure shows the configuration example of Vision Tracking system.

For information about the number of encoders available for an encoder hub and the joint number, refer to "Number of Available Encoders and the Joint Number".

For encoder hub, there are old model and new model.

In the above wiring diagram, only new model is available. New model has two robot connector ports.

For details about the external diagram and the precaution on installation, refer to "Encoder HUB".

When you examine and design this robot system, the knowledge of the dual arm control function is required. Please read "DUAL ARM CONTROL FUNCTION MANUAL" as well.
If both the dual arm control function and the conveyor tracking function are used together, only the following robot models are available. Extended joints are not available for this application.
- HSR
- HSA1
- Robots that are controlled by the MC8 series motion controller.
When installing robots, pay attention that robots do not interrupt each other in operation.
Use the extended-joint supporting RC8 series robot controller.
You need to have one license of the conveyor tracking function. You do not need to prepare two licenses.
