Robots are increasingly finding their way into modern machines for a variety of reasons. Therefore, it's important to allow easy integration of various robots into the machine, both hardware and software.
With Machine-Centric Robotics (MCR for short), B&R offers the possibility of directly integrating a wide range of robots with a single controller. Proposed servo amplifiers from B&R are connected directly to the robot's motors. This brings with it a multitude of advantages:
- Only one engineering tool: Automation Studio
- Synchronization with other machine tasks
- Diagnosis and maintenance via a single interface
This training introduces the concept of MCR and the basics of robotics. It includes configuration in Automation Studio, steps and tools for commissioning and the basics of robotics programs and applications. A digital twin is created in Scene Viewer to provide support and visually check the movements.
