APPENDIX

The Perfect Manager for Robotic Work cells


The SCORBOT-ER 5plus is a dependable and safe robotic system designed for laboratory
and training applications. The versatile system allows students to gain theoretical and practical
experience in robotics, automation and control systems.
The SCORBOT ER Splus is ideally suited in FMS and basic CIM tasks as well as
studentdesigned robotic workcells and applications. The system's continuous path, real-time,
multi-tasking controller can monitor and control up to 11 axes, 16 inputs and 16 outputs,
enabling support and integration of numerous peripheral devices.
The system offers students many ways to practice and master the programming of
robotic workcells. SCORBASE software enables intuitive programming and operation of the
SCORBOT ER Splus and workcell devices. Optional RoboCell software provides 3D dynamic
simulation of the robotic workcell during position teaching and program execution. RoboCell
also allows students to create and control simulated industrial workcells of their own design.
Students can also program and control the robotic system in ACL, the controller's
internal programming language, using the ATS interface or any interface program created in
languages such as C, C++, C#, Visual Basic, Visual Basic.NET and Delphi.
The open structure of the vertically articulated 5-axis robot arm enables study of its
design and electro-mechanical operations. Students can also manipulate the controller's
parameters and examine the affect of PID and other control parameters on capabilities such as
accuracy, speed, repeatability and error correction. The integration of mechanics, electronics
and control in one system makes SCORBOT ER Splus the perfect tool for training in
mechatronics.
