Description
The ABB 3HNE00313-1 is a Teach Pendant specifically designed for ABB IRB robots with S4C or S4C+ controllers (models M97 to M2000). 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 3HNE00313-1:
-
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 potentially a small LCD screen (depending on the specific model variant).
-
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.
-
Monitoring and diagnostics: The teach pendant might provide real-time information about the robot’s status, including joint positions, error messages, and sensor data (depending on the model variant).
-
Backlight: The “backlight” in the product code (3HNE00313-1) likely refers to an illuminated keypad or LCD screen for better visibility in potentially low-light industrial environments.
Applications:
The 3HNE00313-1 is used in various industrial automation applications where ABB IRB robots with S4C or S4C+ 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.
