Cooperative Motion

Function Overview

Multiple robots move with keeping the relative position relationship between tool end of respective robot. With this function, you can easily create a program that includes multiple robot operations.

Joint mode is not available in the cooperative motion.

Example:Transporting a Workpiece

Assuming that two robots move a plate-shaped workpiece together. Robots tilt the workpiece at transporting.

When the Cooperative Motion is Not Used

Since users need to create a program for each robot, it is difficult to realize desired robot motion.

When the Cooperative Motion is Used

Since the follower automatically moves according to the leader's motion, you only have to program the leader's motion. Programming for the follower is not required.

Extended Joint

When extended-joints are used, an extended-joint on the follower moves the same motion distance as that of the leader.

Only motion distance and timing are the same. Actual robot motion depends on the settings and facilities installation environment.

Programming

This motion is specified by SyncMove of motion option.
