The robotics solution is an add-on to the PacDrive product line, designed to satisfy the rapidly rising demand for the integration of robots into machine design: using Lexium 52 or Lexium 62 servo motors for robot kinematics with up to 6 axes allows full integration into the PacDrive automation solution. Users can select library functions for integrating robots into the IEC 61131-3-compliant machine program structures of PacDrive LMC controllers. SoMachine tools form the basis for engineering, commissioning, and diagnosis of PacDrive based robotics solutions. With the availability of complete robot arm mechanisms, there is no longer any need to develop customer-specific kinematics or to integrate third-party products. Robot-enabled machine designs can now be created even faster. The PacDrive portfolio consists of Delta 2 and Delta 3 picker mechanisms, the latter available with or without motor housings. All of the robots can be commissioned quickly and easily.
- Pre-assembled and ready to connect, compact design for ceiling mounting.
- Referenced ex-factory.
- Re-referencing (“homing”) without additional tools.
The PacDrive Delta 2 robot is quick, quiet, and reliable. Its maximum load capacity is 25 kg (55 lb)
- High payload capacity.
- Large work envelope.
- Protection class up to IP55
- Easy-clean design.
PacDrive Delta 3 robots are designed for fast pick-and-place operations. They stand out due to their short cycle times and an exceptional payload capacity of up to 15 kg (33.1 lb). When combined with a vision system, PacDrive Delta 3 robots can also be used for random and/or mixed product flow picking. An optimised tube/cable mounting through the parallel plate reduces the risk of collision with products and machine parts.
- 3 different types for optimum footprint.
- Three or four degrees of freedom.
- Pre-assembled and ready to connect, compact design for ceiling mounting.
- Standard components for mechanisms and drives.
- Choice between Lexium SH3 servo motors and Lexium 62 ILM integrated drives.
- Stainless construction (not D2).
- IP65 rated, sealed stainless steel design for pharmaceutical and food applications (optional: IP69K and cleanroom class 6)
- Suitable for washdown applications (P4 only).
- Patented, fully welded stainless steel lower arms, no gluing, no issues with cleaning fluids.
