F01/02/03/04 Controllers

The F01/02/03/04 controllers are new generation controllers with universal specifications. By combining an optional transformer unit, it can be used in countries around the world where the primary power supply voltage differs.
The volume and mass of the controller have been greatly reduced by 30% from the previous universal controllers (E01/02/03/04) to a size that can be stored in a 19-inch rack. As controllers for medium and large robots, they are the smallest and lightest in the industry.
In addition, the performance of the latest CPU has been greatly improved, and various options such as the built-in 2D vision are also available. Together with the teach pendant GenII, it's a new, easy-to-use controller.

Energy saving
The F03 controller is equipped standard with a power regenerative function and makes a significant contribution to energy conservation by effectively utilizing regenerative energy. The power regenerative function is available for the F02/F04 controllers as an option*1.
*1 ・・・ This option needs space for 2 external axis amplifier units.
Universal Support
They are universal specifications that can be used in countries all over the world by using an optional transformer unit in regions with different primary power supply voltage and safety standards.
Highly expandable and network supported
Improved CPU performance and enhanced I/F provide a wide range of user needs and expandability.
・Equipped standard with 2 LAN ports supporting up to 1000 BASE-T.
・LAN port can be added by incorporating switching hub function. (optional)
・Built-in 2D vision. (optional)
・Bluetooth connection between tablet and controller. (optional)
・Supports various fieldbuses.
・Compatible with the new teach pendant GenII.
High safety
The safety circuit of the F01/02/03/04 controller satisfies ISO 13849-1 PLe, Category 4, IEC 61508 SIL 3.
In addition, the optional functional safety unit "Cubic-S" can be added to support high value-added safety functions such as space monitoring function and speed monitoring function (* 2).
* 2 ・・・ The safety level of space monitoring function, speed monitoring function, etc. satisfies ISO 13849-1 PLd, Category 3, IEC 61508 SIL2.

Teach Pendant Gen II

Teach Pendant Gen II
The new Gen II teach pendant weighs only 690 grams, the lightest in the industry. Its volume is 26% smaller than the previous model. In addition to improved functionability and maintenability such as USB memory, cable length extension, and detachable connectors, 3D display and 2D vision function setting are now possible thanks to the increased number of LCD colors from 256 to 260,000.

Features

Industry's Most Compact, Lightweight Design
Component integration and size and weight reductions, as well as component layout optimization, have resulted in an approximate 77% reduction in size and 72% reduction in weight for a much more compact overall design. This enables installation in 19-inch racks, stacked installation and other such arrangements, greatly reducing the space required for controller installation. Furthermore, the low 8.3 kg weight makes it easier for a single employee to carry the unit around.
(The above figures are comparisons between the new F60 and the previous E7X series of controllers.)

Energy Savings
Regenerative energy produced via robot operations is reused to cut down on energy loss, and redesign of components and control reduce electricity consumption by the control circuit. These improvements and others result in a total energy reduction of approx. 10% *1 and contribute toward greater overall energy savings and lower CO2 emissions.
*1 : in our standard motion pattern using the RS010N robot
Universal Support
Formerly, there were different controller specifications to support the respective standards of Japan/Asia, Europe, and the U.S. Now, functional safety technology has been employed to adopt a common safety circuit. The new controllers have common global specifications that support the standards of every country.
Excellent Extensibility
・ The optional Bluetooth interface enables connection using tablets without the need for additional settings/customization
・ Possible to connect to a maximum of four 32-channel I/O units for remote I/O
・ Possible to include external motor control amplifiers for up to two axes and Cubic-S safety monitoring function * 2 inside the compact cabinet
*2 : The cabinet will be partially expanded for Cubic-S.
