Description
The 3HAC023195-001 is a Teach Pendant specifically designed for ABB IRB robots with IRC5 controllers (models M2000 and newer). A teach pendant is a handheld control unit used to program and operate an industrial robot.
Here’s a breakdown of the key features and functionalities of the 3HAC023195-001:
Programming and control:
- Allows users to program robot movements, define waypoints, set speeds, and configure various robot parameters through an interface with buttons, a keypad, and a color touchscreen.
- Features an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) that makes programming and operation more user-friendly compared to older teach pendants with limited displays.
- Provides on-screen help and instructions to guide users through the programming process.
Teaching mode:
- Enables users to physically move the robot’s arm through desired trajectories, which the teach pendant then records as a program. This simplifies robot programming for tasks that don’t require complex path planning.
- The touchscreen can be used to display joint positions, error messages, and other relevant information during teaching mode.
Monitoring and diagnostics:
- Provides real-time information about the robot’s status, including joint positions, error messages, sensor data, and program execution status.
- The touchscreen can display detailed diagnostic information and graphs to aid in troubleshooting and performance monitoring.
Additional Features:
- Jogging controls: Allows users to manually move the robot’s joints to specific positions for setup or fine-tuning.
- I/O monitoring: Enables monitoring of input and output signals from the robot’s sensors and actuators.
- Data logging: Records robot data and events for analysis and troubleshooting.
Applications:
The 3HAC023195-001 is used in various industrial automation applications where ABB IRB robots with IRC5 controllers are deployed. Here are some examples:
- Material handling: Picking and placing parts, assembly line operations, palletizing.
- Arc welding: Programming and controlling robotic welding processes.
- Painting and coating: Applying paint or other coatings on products using a robot.
- Machine tending: Loading and unloading materials from machines.
- Quality control: Automated inspection tasks.
