1.1. Overview of jig robots

 

A jig robot makes linear movements in X, Y, and Z directions. The arrangement of multiple jig robots plays the role of jig for manufacturing processes.

 

This product can be used in any of the following cases:

 

n where the position control of fixed jigs is necessary for process purposes

n where multiple product models are manufactured, requiring multiple workpieces

n where developed products are continually added to an existing mass-production process

 

Typically, one controller (12 axes) controls four 3-axis jig robots or three 4-axis jig robots.

Controlling a maximum of four jig robots (48 axes in total, 12 axes per controller) is possible in a linked manner using the cooperative control function.

One program can make the robots perform both independent and cooperative operations.
