Saturn 1 Articulated Arm Servo Robot Learning System – 830-RS1-B

Request Information

Amatrol’s 830-RS1-B Saturn Servo Robot Learning System teaches articulated arm servo robotics and their industrial applications. With features like a powerful programming language, industrial controller and high repeatability, it is ideal for teaching a wide variety of precision applications including assembly, material handling, machine tending, gluing and inspection.

The 830-RS1-B includes a 5-axis articulated servo robot arm, controller, gripper, teach pendant, on-line/off-line programming software, cable set, student learning materials for theory and lab, and teacher’s assessment guide. Extensive programming capability is provided with the powerful MCL II language. The Saturn’s programming capability combines with a multitasking controller, three programming frames, an intelligent teach pendant, high repeatability, and a flexible I/O interface to deliver an unparalleled learning experience.

Extensive Programming Capability- The Saturn programming language, MCLII is a powerful language with 140+ executable commands, more than 3 times the number of commands offered with typical educational robots. The Saturn can be programmed to perform a range of tasks from simple move sequences to more complex applications involving serial and Ethernet data communications. Easy-to-use Windows-based programming software is supplied, which allows students to program the robot on-line or off-line. Optional simulation software expands capabilities even further.

Intelligent Teach Pendant- The 830-RS1-B uses the latest design in teach pendant technology with function keys called soft keys that take on a variety of functions according to a menu shown on the multi-line teach pendant display. The teach pendant becomes a hand-held programming terminal, enabling users to develop sequence programs as well as teach points.

3 Programming Frames- Teaching move points can be performed using any one of three coordinate systems: Cartesian, tool frame, and joint frame. This industrial feature enables users to quickly program new points in virtually any type of application because the robot can move in the coordinate frame of the application itself.

High Repeatability- The Saturn has a high repeatability of 0.09 mm because it has precision harmonic gear drives, high resolution encoders, infrared homing sensors, and multiple microprocessors. This industrial quality repeatability supports training of more precise industrial tasks such as assembly.

Flexible I/O Interface- The Saturn’s I/O interface makes it easy to interface a variety of I/O devices with a built-in 24 VDC power supply, switch-closure type inputs, and relay contact outputs. The outputs interface directly to solenoids having a variety of voltages ranging from 5 VDC to 220 VAC. The standard interface includes 16 inputs and 16 outputs.

Flexible Workstation With Interchangeable Work-surfaces (Optional) – Amatrol’s flexible workstation provides significant benefits to teachers and learners alike. Excellent organization and ergonomics combine with easy robot relocation. The perforated work surface allows instructors to create an unlimited array of robotic movement learning opportunities.
