Yaskawa Controllers and Peripheral

Collaborative Robot with Hand-Guided Teaching

The YRC1000, is a compact, fast and flexible controller for MOTOMAN robots that combines high performance robot controller in a small footprint cabinet. Besides the typical YASKAWA controller functionality, the YRC1000 includes additional functional improvements. Speed of the controller has been increased by lowering the ladder scanner time. Path accuracy improvement assures increased precision in trajectory performance independently on the motion speed.

Building on the success of the powerful DX200 controller, the YRC1000 is faster and more precise. This next-generation controller provides operators and service staff with powerful functionality while retaining the proven controller performance Yaskawa is known for. The YRC1000 uses the lightweight standard teach pendant, or it can be utilized with the easy-to-use touchscreen Smart Pendant on the GP7, GP8 and GP12 robot models.

• Built to a global standard and does not require a transformer for input voltages ranging from 380VAC to 480VAC
• I/O communication speed is improved by as much as 50% for superior work efficiency
• MLX300 software add-on option for PLC integration
• High path accuracy enables increased precision in trajectory performance independently of motion speed
• Integrated machine and functional safety for simplified setup
