Robotics Integrated Controller from Omron
February 14, 2022
An all-in-one control platform for applications requiring high-speed processing, machine control, safety, reliability, and maintainability. The Omron Robotics Integrated Controller (IC) perfectly synchronizes automation technology so that customers can improve the speed and accuracy of their production, simulate entire production lines, simplify maintenance, and reduce time-to-market.
The Robotics Integrated Platform is the next revolutionary step in the SYSMAC ecosystem that seamlessly integrates the full Omron Fixed Robotics product line. Omron’s one controller approach integrates robot control, in addition to sequence and motion control, to a single controller. This enables synchronized control of robots as well as other devices and results in higher performance compared to typical network based configurations. It also enables users to collect information on devices aligned to a common timeline which not only improves overall system response times and accuracy but also greatly aids in troubleshooting activities.
