Carson, CA - EPSON Robots, a global leader in advanced robotic technology, introduces the new RC620+, EPSON’s 4th generation open architecture PC based workcell controller. The high performance RC620+ provides the ultimate experience of industry leading ease of use with EPSON RC+ development software. L
"The RC620+ adds to EPSON’s initiative of providing our customers with more Power of Choice than ever before” stated Michael Ferrara, Director of EPSON Robots. “It is the controller of choice for those applications that require a powerful open architecture solution for system expansion and advanced motion and I/O control for demanding applications. With over 10 years of PC based controller experience, EPSON has combined industry leading PC based controls with superior real time motion and I/O control to provide advanced motion control and open architecture expandability all from the same controller.”
3 PCI slots are available for options such as Vision Systems, Fieldbus masters or third party plug-in cards to expand the RC620+ controller as needed for particular applications. The RC620+ runs a separate CPU dedicated to motion control and real time options including additional I/O, conveyor tracking, expansion I/O and DeviceNet, Profibus and EtherNet/IP Fieldbus slave options. This gives users the best of both worlds with the open architecture, ease of use and expandability of Microsoft Windows while also providing real time performance for time critical components such as motion and I/O control.
