OptiMove

Description

The OptiMove motion value is an advanced feature of PolyScope X Move To program.

It allows you to have:

  • more dynamic robot acceleration and deceleration,

  • smoother moves with less jerk,

  • more fluent acceleration and deceleration,

  • higher travel speeds, and

  • reduced vibrations and loads on the robot and mounted equipment.

The combined effect in OptiMove generally results in improved cycle time with more fluent motion and reduced strain on the robot.
