EcosphereECO linear axis
The ECOSPHERE linear axis extends the working range of your robot. Whether you are working with a small UR3 or a larger UR20 robot. All robot sizes from UNIVERSAL ROBOTS are supported. The length of the linear axis can be configured to meet the unique requirements of each customer, with a maximum travel length of up to 5 meters. Thanks to the supplied URCap, integrating the linear axis into the UNIVERSAL ROBOTS user interface is a breeze. Thanks to a complete integration into the robots polyscope operating system, the ECOSPHERE linear axis can be controlled in the same intuitive way as the robot‘s movements themselves. This makes it easy to use and intuitive to operate. Furthermore, the URCap supports the simultaneous movement of the linear axis and the robot joints, allowing shorter cycle times and increased productivity. The linear axis and the associated control cabinet are delivered pre-assembled and can be commissioned in just a few steps (plug and play). Thanks to the absolute encoder, the linear axis still knows its position value even after a reboot. This means that in general no homing is necessary. With a maximum speed of over 1 m/s, the ECOSPHERE linear axis is ideal for time-critical applications.
