MotionPlus makes multi-axis control intuitive and precise. Using EtherCAT, it manages up to six external axes_linear or rotary_so welding, dispensing, or inspection tasks move as one coordinated system. Eliminate complex programming and expand what your automation can achieve with seamless, synchronized performance.
MotionPlus
Take your automation solution to the next level with coordinated motion, a set of software capabilities that enable synchronized motion between the cobot's TCP and one or more motorized axes.
Synchronized. Simplified.
Multiple motion frames in a single system
Coordinated motion for up to six external axes integrated into a single system
Enables complex shapes and paths
Unlock precise, synchronized motion across multiple axes for advanced automation applications, powered by open compatibility with leading servo drives and motor systems.
Access more of the workspace.
Enable the cobot to work from all angles and minimize repositioning
Easy programming
Intuitive URScript commands to achieve precise and complex motion on rotating parts.
Key applications
Coordinated motion expands what automation can achieve, enabling robots to handle more complex tasks with greater precision and efficiency.
Welding
MotionPlus enables robots to weld complex or cylindrical parts by coordinating multiple axes, allowing seamless rotation and precise path following. This increases productivity, delivers consistent weld quality, and reduces manual repositioning for safer, more efficient automation.
Dispensing
Dispensing applications benefit from coordinated motion, as the robot candispense materials while the part rotates or the robot base moves. This enables complete and even coverage around complex shapes, including vertical surfaces, and delivers consistent results with minimal manual intervention.
Finishing
MotionPlus enables the robot to access more of the workspace, allowing continuous surface treatment over large or irregular areas without stopping. By synchronizing external axes, it delivers uniform results and faster cycle times, reducing the need for manual adjustments.
