Short description

Using the inertial sensors of the 6D Inertial Measurement Unit (6D IMU),

the KeTop T10 directMove detects its orientation and direction in three

-dimensional space. The operator can therefore easily specify the desired

movement or rotation of the robot’s TCP by indicating the KeTop T10

directMove in the direction of motion and then by deflecting a small joystick

– regardless of his/her position relative to the robot. The speed of motion

can be changed by adjusting the intensity of the joystick deflection.

This means that no in-depth knowledge of coordinate systems is required.

Teach-in is easier and more efficient for both experienced operators and new

users.

Maximum flexibility is achieved through four operating modes that are displayed

on the 1.5″ color display using icons:

directMove mode: the robot follows the direction instructions from the KeTop

T10 directMove completely free in space.

snap2grid mode: use of defined coordinate systems as reference directions for

the KeTop T10 directMove for precisely directed movements of the robot.

virtual handle mode: the KeTop T10 directMove acts as a virtual handle on the

Tool Center Point to change its alignment quickly and easily.

axial movement mode: for the direct movement of individual robot axes as with

a conventional handheld operating device.

With the KeTop T10 directMove, the individual path points are thereby determined

and finely adjusted. If necessary, standard operating devices and screen devices

such as laptops can also be used for programming.
