The MG400 is IP20 rated it needs: The ambient temperature within the range of 0°C to 40°C. The ambient humidity is expected to be within 5% to 85%. The MG400 is not designed to resist dust or water penetration. To ensure its protection when operating in such environments, it is recommended to utilize a protective cover for the robot.

The MG400 has an all-in-one design. The controller and servo drive are located at the base of the robot. With compact base dimensions of 190 mm x 190 mm—smaller than an A4 paper—the MG400 offers exceptional portability and is excellently suited for dynamic production needs.

Within the MG400's base resides an integrated fan system. This fan operates automatically to dissipate heat whenever the internal temperature surpasses a specific threshold.

To ensure utmost safety, the MG400 incorporates brakes within the motors situated at the J2 and J3 joints. These brakes serve to secure the robotic arms in a fixed position in the event of power failure or an emergency stop. Conversely, the J1 and J4 joints lack brakes, as their horizontal rotation renders them unaffected by power disruptions. All four axes are outfitted with absolute position encoders. Remarkably, even in the absence of power, the MG400 retains the capability to record axis positions.

The MG400 uses servo motors.

The ENC interface only supports ABZ encoders, and the encoder value cannot be read directly. It is necessary to use with the conveyor belt and the dynamic tracking software function on the upper computer.

Port 502 is used for modbus applications by default, don't occupy it. Port 8172 is used by the Lua debugger, don't occupy it. LAN1 192.168.1.6 is used by the MG400 to connect to the upper computer. LAN2 192.168.2.6 is available to the operator for TCP communication by default. User can modify it, but do not change it to network segment 1 to avoid conflicts with LAN1.

The CR series exhibits a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 32,000 hours. However, the actual lifespan varies according to distinct factors such as the operational environment, maintenance practices, and other considerations, making it unique for each individual robot unit.

The robotic arm itself holds an IP54 rating for protection, while the control box boasts an IP20 rating. Moreover, there exists the possibility of fabricating a tailored outer shell for the control box to enhance its IP rating.

The collaborative robots within the CR series offer support for expanding EtherCAT and TCP/IP protocols. Currently, the software for this extension is under development. In instances where axis extension is required, it is advised to consider utilizing TCP communication for the extension process.

The CR series has achieved a range of international certifications, including CE, CR, FCC, KCs, RCM, and UL. In addition, it has successfully attained compliance with the ISO 13849 PLd safety standard, as well as meeting the safety requirements outlined in TS 15066 for collaborative industrial robot systems.

The SafeSkin, an accessory crafted from silicone, is tailored for seamless integration with the CR series. It elegantly attaches to the J4 to J6 joints of the robotic arms. Concealed within this silicone shell are components adept at detecting fluctuations in electromagnetic waves, bestowing the CR series with the remarkable ability to sense nearby foreign objects. This forms the foundation for the SafeSkin's pre-collision detection feature. Functioning in harmony with the CR series, the SafeSkin excels at pre-collision detection. Its adeptness lies in sensing obstacles within a range of 15 cm, upon which it promptly instructs the robotic arm to execute evasion maneuvers. TS 15066 stipulates that conventional collaborative robots must operate below 250 mm/s to ensure safe interaction with humans upon contact. With the added advantage of the SafeSkin, the CR series achieves safe collaboration even while operating at speeds of up to 1 m/s. This represents a fourfold enhancement in speed, delivering remarkable performance gains while unwaveringly upholding safety standards.

The format is: roll, pitch, yaw (XYZ fixed angles, Euler Angles X-Y-Z fixed angles).

The noise emission level is 65 decibels.

Programmers have several tools at their disposal for debugging programs. These include the utilization of the print function to display specific information, employing a step-by-step debugging tool to meticulously analyze code execution, and strategically setting breakpoints to pause execution at desired points for closer inspection. Moreover, in scenarios where the program involves TCP or Modbus applications, an additional avenue for debugging emerges. This entails employing external devices to facilitate the transmission of test data, thereby aiding in the thorough debugging process.

The maximum speed of the different models varies as follows: CR3 reaches 2 m/s, CR5 achieves 3 m/s, CR7 maintains 3 m/s, CR10 attains 4 m/s, CR12 also hits 4 m/s, and CR16 achieves 3 m/s. It's important to note that achieving the maximum operating speed might not be feasible for short-distance operations.

Port 502 is used for ModbusTCP, don't occupy it. Port 8172 is used by the upper computer software for real-time data, don't occupy it. Ports 29999, 30003 and 30004 are for TCP/IP secondary development, don’t occupy them. Port 29999 is used for initialization instructions. Port 30003 is used for motion commands. Port 30004 is used for information printing.

The control box of the CR series is equipped with 16 digital outputs and 16 digital inputs. Notably, these 16 digital outputs can be multiplexed to function as digital inputs as well. In cases where the available number of IO ports is insufficient, expansion options are available through the utilization of an IO expansion module. To facilitate this, the CR series currently offers a standard digital IO expansion module.

The CR series is compatible with AGV systems, often establishing communication via Modbus master/slave stations. Considering that AGV batteries typically operate within the 45V to 55V range, an inverter or a switch to a DC-powered version of the CR control box is required. This transition can be seamlessly accomplished by indicating the need for such a modification when placing an order.

AMRs are created to operate alongside humans in a collaborative manner. One of their primary attributes is their exceptional safety, allowing them to function effectively in dynamic environments alongside people. Should an individual encounter an AMR's path, its safety laser scanning system promptly identifies the obstruction, leading the robot to swiftly alter its course or halt altogether to prevent any potential collision.

Enterprises within the supply chain sector are incorporating mobile robots into tasks necessitating the movement of diverse materials or items. These robots can constitute a completely automated group, called fleet, facilitating the transport of goods between storage facilities or linking production areas with warehouses. AMRs possess straightforward programmability and can seamlessly integrate into a wide array of indoor settings, encompassing even the more intricate and dynamic industrial environments. Here's a general outline of the integration process: 1. Assessment and Planning: Evaluate your current automation needs and processes to identify areas where AMRs can add value. Determine the specific tasks or materials that the AMRs will handle. Define the goals and objectives of integrating AMRs, such as improving efficiency, reducing labor costs, or enhancing safety. 2. Robot Selection: Choose the appropriate AMR model(s) based on your requirements, such as payload capacity, navigation capabilities, and battery life. Ensure compatibility with your existing infrastructure and any required communication protocols. 3. Map Creation and Navigation: Create digital maps of the areas where AMRs will operate using software or by recording the robot's movements. Define waypoints, paths, and potential obstacles within the maps. Set up navigation systems, which could include laser scanners, cameras, and sensors, to enable the AMRs to move autonomously while avoiding obstacles. 4. Programming and Configuration: Use the AMR's programming interface or software platform to configure its behavior, routes, and tasks. Define pick-up and drop-off points, storage locations, and any interactions with other machinery or workers. 5.

Establish protocols for human-robot collaboration and ensure workers understand the capabilities and limitations of the AMRs. 8. Monitoring and Maintenance: Implement a monitoring system to track the performance, status, and location of the AMRs. Schedule regular maintenance and updates to ensure the robots operate at their best. 9. Scale and Expand: Once the initial integration is successful, consider expanding the deployment of AMRs to other areas of your facility or additional tasks. 10. Continuous Improvement: Gather data and feedback to identify opportunities for further optimization and continuous improvement of your AMR integration.

Unlike AGVs (automated guided vehicles), which rely on cables, magnetic strips, or warehouse-installed sensors for guidance, AMRs navigate using maps generated by software within the environment, along with laser scanners or pre-loaded facility blueprints. This process is akin to a GPS-equipped car with preloaded maps, determining the optimal path between points. AMRs are directed to memorize locations, retrieve and distribute items through an intuitive interface. By utilizing data from integrated cameras, sensors, and laser scanners, coupled with sophisticated software, AMRs identify their surroundings and select the most efficient route to their destination. Operating autonomously, they adeptly circumvent obstacles like forklifts, pallets, humans, or other impediments by choosing the best alternative path.
