Movotrak? Cobot Transfer Unit

The first ever collaborative 7th axis, the Movotrak Cobot Transfer Unit (CTU) features collision detection settings for groundbreaking programming and control benefits. A plug-and-play system for quick and easy implementation into various robotic functions, Movotrak CTU adds a horizontal operating range up to 10 m to significantly boost productivity and output. Compatible with even the largest sized cobots on the market, the 7th axis slide offers flexible mounting options, and features a dual-linear-unit design for precise linear motion, and maximum moment load and stiffness.

Includes: Dual linear units, Kollmorgen servo motor, precision gearhead, carriage mounting plate for robot, Freedrive paddles, end-of-stroke limit switches, cable management, control box and software with 7th axis collision detection. For Universal Robots, a URCap is available for programming directly on the UR Teach Pendant.

What Can a 7th Axis Do For Your Productivity?

WITHOUT 7th AXIS

WITH 7th AXIS

Extend your operating range up to 10 meters

Space required for aisles between stations
Potential for worker collisions/injuries
Limited reach by workers
Significant downtime due to shift changes, breaks and overall slower pace of work
Potentially long learning curve

No aisles required; saves space
Safer work area
Extended work area (up to 10 meters)
24/7 operation
Consistent/reliable quality of work
Simple installation
Simple programming

當您完成MovoTrak安裝后，請遵循本視頻的介紹進行碰撞檢測設(shè)置和第7軸編程。

MovoTrak Feature Highlights:

Collision detection settings provide users with enhanced capabilities, including:
- User-adjustable collision detection on the MovoTrak performs similar to robotic joints.
- Set the sensitivity during installation per your application's requirements.
- Large surface areas on the MovoTrak linear carriage act as paddles, allowing for a safeguard stop when contacted.
- All collision monitoring is conducted on the MovoTrak motor drive and/or digital I/O with minimal processing required from the UR controller.
- Safety I/O connections for all stopping scenarios are supplied by the cobot and third-party safeguard devices.

Compatible with many cobot brands, including ABB, Denso, Doosan, Fanuc, Kassow, Kawasaki, Techman, Universal Robots and Yamaha.
7th axis Freedrive programming mode allows hand-driven movements to set linear waypoints directly on the UR Teach Pendant.
A dual-linear-unit design helps deliver maximum moment load and stiffness, even when the cobot arm is fully extended.
Movotrak 7th axis can be mounted with any UR robot, including the UR20, in all directions (horizontally, wall-mounted, inverted, etc.).
End-of-stroke limit switches and cable management are included.
Mounting feet are provided to mount the 7th axis to industry-standard metric or inch extrusions.

MovoTrak Applications:

Machine tending
Material handling (bin picking, palletizing and packaging)
Large-scale welding, soldering, sanding and dispensing
Large part testing and inspection

With a Thomson Movotrak CTU, your robot-driven applications will soar in productivity thanks to an extended operating range of 10 m, 24/7 operation and more consistent quality of work.

"The Thomson Movotrak CTU is a seamless way to extend the use of our UR5 robot with no learning curve. The freedrive capabilities allow for faster programming and cell setup."

- William M., ARM Institute
