Traversing Unit
Robot Seventh Axis
Basic Description: Kawasaki's Traversing Base 7th Axis is designed with the same high standards as our robots. the direct drive sstem consists of a rack and pinion and precision rail mechanism. The integrated motion control and servo system maintain accurate repeatability rates.
The traversing base is controlled by the robot's standard C Controller, requiring no additional hardware. Available in track lengths from 1 to 20 meters with speeds up to 1000mm/secnd. Each 7th axis is complete with a cable track system to support robot cables and can be shrouded if required to work in harsh environments.
Special Features:
•  Modular construction
•  Allows the ability to access difficult areas
    avoiding obstructions.
•  Using co-operative motion software, the
    transporter becomes a fully integrated axis
    of the robot.
•  Teach pendant controlled, just like the other
    robot axes.
•  Compatible with all applications which
    require extreme accuracy with precise path
    and velocity control.
•  Increased work envelope while maintaining
    repeatabiity.
•  Optional Cable Track System for tooling
    and peripheral equipment control.
