Roller Screw versus Ball Screw Actuators
In the ever-evolving field of engineering, roller screw technology has become a significant force in linear electric actuator motion control....
Trio’s unique UNIPLAY HMI system is a revolutionary way to make operator interfaces better, easier and more secure! The UNIPLAY series boasts a 7", 10" and 15,6" colour display.
The UNIPLAY range has built-in power isolation technology making it more reliable in noisy environments.
No additional software is required; Uniplay HMI’s work with the Trio 4xx Motion Coordinator range. Motion Perfect v3 is used to create operator HMI screens which are transferred to the UNIPLAY HMI by the Motion Coordinator at runtime.
Portal robot with a working range of 7600 x 400 x 2500 mm in the X-Y-Z plane where solar panels are stacked.
The HSB portal axes from the Gamma series with double guides are the basis of the system.
The X-Y-Z movements are performed with Trio servomotors and Wanshsin planetary gearboxes.
At the bottom of the Z axis is a 3D manipulator driven with the compact servo motors. The mass of the grab and the solar panel, a total of 75 kg, hangs on the Wanshsin planetary gearbox from the WAD series.
Interpolation of the 3D manipulator and the XYZ system is done with the Trio MC4N motion controller. The Estun servo controllers are controlled from the Trio control via EtherCAT control based. The Trio motion controller has been extended with a Touch Screen and additional I / O modules (Trio EtherCAT Flexslice system) for the complete machine control.
Sub-project completed by the project team of ATB Automation. Positioning of an injection mold with IAI RoboCylinder actuators from the RCP-R series.
The complete control is programmed in the Trio MC405 motion controller equipped with various I / O modules and a 10 "touch screen.
Flexible programmable 4-axis palletizer robot. Heart in this application is the Trio Motion Controller where the 4 axis robot with 4 Leadshine servo drives is controlled via a coordinate transformation. The fast EtherCAT connection between the Trio MC4N-ECAT controller and the drives ensures accurate and simple communication. In addition to the Trio Motion Controller, mechanical components are also used, such as a slewing ring bearing for the rotation movement and a rack and pinion for the horizontal movement. Each servo shaft is equipped with a Stöber planetary gearbox or angle worm gearbox.
Automated pick-and-place system for laboratories where blood samples are tested. The heart of the machine is the Trio Flex6Nano motion controller and touch screen. The many movements are driven with the Leadshine closed loop stepper motors and CS3E controllers. The communication between the Trio control and 17 stepper drives is based on EtherCAT.
Single belt gantry system in the bakery industry: positioning of a spray installation.
Stober servo system with Trio Motion Controller
The servo system and the control system is provided by ATB Automation. This consists of:
- Stober planetary servo drive, PE-EZ
- Stober servo controller SD6 with EtherCAT
- Trio Motion Controller MC4N with EtherCAT
- Trio digital / analog inputs and outputs
- Trio 7 "Touchscreen, UNIPLAY
Programming and commissioning project team of ATB Automation
In cooperation with the producer of the spray system the Trio MC4N Motion Controller is programmed by ATB Automation.
- Motion software with a gantry coordinate transformation, which makes the positioning easy in X and Y (mm) can be programmed
- PLC functionality programmed in IEC 61131
- Operating software in the control panel
The tuning of the servo system is performed by the specialists of ATB Automation.
This is all conducted according to an advance down project design and planning with a fixed price agreement.
ATB Automation: More than components
4-axis milling machine where a chisel with an integrated helical movement is positioned and thread is cut. The machine cut threads on location in old threaded holes.
A complete solution of ATB Automation has been used for cutting waffles.
Two servo driven lineair systems provide the input and output for plates of waffles. A third axis is used to print a cutting blade.
Central control is doe by the multi-axes Trio MC4N Motion Controller. The movements are recorded and matched in this controller. A Trio Uniplay display is being used for control. The Trio Motion Controller sends the servo drives real-time via the fast EtherCAT box.
The switchboard, programming and start-up of the system has been carried out by the ATB Automation project team.
The software engineers at ATB Automation assist in programming and commissioning via the help desk or on site
Expandable with various I/O modules, displays and programmable with IEC 61131-3
