Comau Robotics has ushered in a
new age for robot technology with the WiTP Wireless
Teach Pendant. This device brings added flexibility and safety to any workplace. It communicates with
Comau's C4G Robot Control Unit without any need for cabling.
A Wireless
Teach Pendant allows operators and programmers to move freely around robot
work cells without a constraining cable connection between
teach pendant and controller. The WiTP eliminates a serious safety hazard as well; operators no longer have to worry about tripping over the cable, or taking the
teach pendant's "leash" into consideration when programming.
The WiTP has autonomy for a seven hour work shift and can recharge in only an hour and a half. It has a range of 100 meters.
