Industrial robot controller

Using patented multiple robot control technology,

MOTOMAN’s next-generation DX100 controller easily
handles multiple tasks including control of up to
eight robots (72 axes), as well as I/O devices and
communication protocols.

The energy-saving DX100 features faster processing

speeds, advanced robot arm control for smoother
interpolation, built-in collision avoidance, and quicker
I/O response. These advanced control functions take
advantage of Yaskawa’s Sigma V motor technology to
optimize acceleration characteristics and reduce cycle
time.

Connections to the controller cabinet are made

through the back of the unit, optimizing floor space.
The DX100 conserves power during robot idle time,
providing up to 25% energy savings.

Featuring a robust PC architecture, the DX100 uses a

Windows® CE, lightweight programming pendant
with colour touch screen. Multiple window display
capability and a unique cross-shaped navigation cursor
considerably reduce teaching time.

A convenient compact flash slot and USB port

facilitate memory back-ups. All operator controls are
located on the pendant, allowing the control cabinet
to be mounted remotely.
