[. . . ] I/O setup can be separately backed up and restored using PCMCIA memory card or USB 1) Rear to rear air flow, saving floor space and possibility to have many controllers side by side · All components are IP 54 sealed, hence no filters necessary (reduced maintenance and cost reduction). [. . . ] Multi-robot control (dual / multiple arm) for more than one robot FAST START-UP R-30iA controller needs less than 1 minute to start (and even less with the basic software only). in case of power failure: · Robot program restarts much quicker than with any PC-based program (non-Windows operating system) · The resume hotstart function allows restarting safely and continuing production after power failure: no need to re-do the whole movement. ⷠUnique resume tolerance check: in case of any program interruption, the robot automatically memorises its position before failure. When the program continues, it checks whether the robot has been moved outside of a preset tolerance. Collisions and electrical / mechanical problems to the robot can be detected quickly before serious damages occur. Disturbance excess alarm warns the operator while the collision alarm stops the robot. ⷠOverload monitoring (OVC): the commanded torque is monitored and overload detected when the value gets too big. This greatly reduces the robot's acceleration and deceleration times, leading to reduced cycle times.
