Renishaw Inc. is unveiling a new product line specifically designed for the industrial automation market. Building on its existing expertise and technologies for industrial metrology applications, the RCS product line aims to transform the process of commissioning and servicing industrial automation technologies.
These products are designed to solve fundamental challenges within the global industrial automation industry, including problems associated with manual setup, calibration and maintenance of robots, such as operational accuracy and repeatability. Products include the RCS L-90, RCS T-90 and RCS P-series, all supported by a dedicated software suite.
RCS L-90 is a ballbar device which can improve robot system accuracy, reduce deployment times and monitor robot health with simple routines controlled by its supporting software suite. RCS T-90 is a tri-ballbar system which enables robot users to identify root causes of poor performance, with further comprehensive tests to capture critical robot information such as remastering the joint offsets to calculated positions, running master-recovery routines and plotting 3D path performance. The third RCS product, RCS P-series, integrates a permanent Renishaw probing solution within a robot cell to apply in-process metrology and automatic recovery to automation processes.
Categorized as either “in-field” or “in-process” products, the new RCS products help to simplify robot setup, health checks and recovery of robotic applications following collisions. Working with Renishaw’s new intuitive robotics software, RCS Software Suite, the products support robots from a wide range of manufacturers.
