MONTREAL — Vention, the company behind the cloud-based Manufacturing Automation Platform (MAP), launched its advancement in robotic control in collaboration with Universal Robots: Coordinated Motion. This technology allows users to achieve synchronized motion control across six robot joints and a single external linear axis, enabling precise TCP (Tool Center Point) trajectory execution through multiple waypoints at specific times across the robot workspace.
By integrating Coordinated Motion between Vention’s 7th axis and Universal Robots’ collaborative robots, it allows users to optimize their automated system’s cycle time, maintain a constant TCP, and track the TCP to enhance efficiency and throughput.
The coordinated motion technology developed with Universal Robots offers multiple solutions for various applications. It caters to integrating robots on a horizontal 7th axis, a vertical 7th axis, and a rotary positioner. This offering will broaden the utility of Coordinated Motion and add a valuable dimension to automation solutions.
“It is a great achievement to show at FABTECH the new coordinated motion software developed in collaboration with Universal Robots,” said Anik Roy Trudel, VP of Product Line Management at Vention. “This new innovation exemplifies Vention’s and Universal Robots’ commitment to providing our users with cutting-edge solutions that streamline operations and enhance productivity. We are excited to empower our Universal Robots’ customers with Coordinated Motion and looking forward to sharing the impact it will have on their automated systems.”
