Replacing Robot Batteries

Robot batteries are important to ensure things are up and running properly and efficiently. It is important to ensure that a robot's battery is changed when power settings are starting to get low so no reteaching will have to occur. Robots.com offers a wide range of robot batteries and suggests having a few on hand.

Keeping It All Together – Wire and Cabling Harnesses

Wires and cable harnesses help the robotic systems organize and protect their plugs and ports. The wires run from several different areas of the robot to the controller and back again, so keeping things organized is hugely beneficial. Containing cords and wires will decrease the wear and tear of your wires and increase the overall lifespan.

Plugging It In with Controller Boards

A robot controller helps to program and run the robotic system. Without a controller, the robot would have now way to perform the necessary complex applications. The controller has a wide range of controller boards that are inside the robot controller, helping connect all of the wires and plugs within.

Robots That Kill... And How to Stop Them

It is very important to set up proper safety mechanisms on your robotic system. There are a wide range of options available to make your safety environment completely safe for your workers including fencing, pressurized mats, and light curtains. Talk to Robots.com experts today to figure out what the best options for your production line are.

Optimize for Continued Improvement

Optimization of your robotic system will help ensure that your production line will run continuously. It is important to ensure that robot systems receive regular maintenance, repair, and attention. This will ensure that your robot will last a long time and be able to continually boost your productivity.

Motoman's Kinetiq Teaching Program

Motoman's Kinetiq is a teaching add-on from Robotiq that enables a greater amount of people to program a welding robot. Kinetiq Teaching is a very simple programming strategy to help decrease the amount of time it takes to set up a robot system. The programmer can simply manually place the robot arm at different angles and locations while the robot records the movements.

The Motoman DX200 Controller
