The Delta-3 robot from Omron is designed to achieve up to 200 cycles/min and can be synchronised with multiple conveyors to perform on-the-fly pick-and-place operations.
At the core of the robot’s architecture is the Sysmac NJ Machine Automation Controller (MAC). In the past, robots were controlled exclusively by dedicated robot controllers. A machine architect can now decide to control a robot in exactly the same way as all other parts, from one control system, by using Sysmac Studio software. Now it is possible to integrate machine control, vision, HMI, safety and robotics in the one controller.
The NJ501 uses EtherCAT as the motion network. The control system calculates Delta-3 kinematics in a few microseconds and achieves top performance regarding the number of robot cycles and repeatability. Up to eight Delta robots can be controlled by one Sysmac NJ controller.
There are three types of Delta robot arms - available as Washdown, Delta and Mini Delta robot. The NJ controller offers a response time of 2 ms when controlling eight Delta robots or 1 ms when controlling four robots.
The Delta-3 robot has three arms and is programmed to pick and place low weight (1-3 kg) loads quickly. There is also an optional fourth arm for workpiece orientation.
The Delta-3 robot rotates through 360° and can work in an envelope of about 1100 mm. The machines are low maintenance, with no major parts to be replaced for at least 10-15 years if serviced regularly.
