DENSO Robotics Joins Rockwell Automation Encompass Program, Introduces Add-On Instructions for Rockwell Automation PLCs and PACs
POSTED 11/09/2011
Along with the partnership, DENSO has introduced new Add-On Instructions (AOIs) for its RC7 robot controller, which allow DENSO robots to be controlled and programmed directly from a Rockwell Automation CompactLogix™ PLC or ControlLogix® PAC via EtherNet/IP. The AOIs enable even new robotics users to easily install, program, operate and support robot applications using the familiar Rockwell Automation RSLogix™ interface.
"We are proud to be associated with such an outstanding company as Rockwell Automation," said Peter Cavallo, robotics sales manager, DENSO Sales California. "We are also looking forward to working with more Rockwell Automation customers. Our new AOIs make it even easier for them to use our robots."
