Robot Axes
The Twister II robots are cylindrical robots with five separate axes.
A home sensor determines the home location for each axis of
motion.
Figure 71 shows the five axes. A description of each axis
follows the figure.
Figure 71. Robotic Arm and Robot Motion Centers
Reach
The Reach axis moves the grip horizontally. The reach axis has a
range of 11.25” (28.5 cm.) to 19.75” (50.1 cm.) from the center of
the robot post. The total span is 8.5” (21.6 cm.).
The Twister II robot uses the reach movement to place materials at
variable distances, which enables the additional capacity of the
three-rack pod arrangement and enables the Twister II to access
instruments at various distances from the Twister II.
Vertical
The Vertical axis moves the arm up and down. The span is 21.5”
(54.6 cm.), from 6.5” (16.5 cm.) to 28” (71.1 cm.) above the table.
The Twister II vertical movement enables you to access instruments
at varying heights and to place the instruments on different levels to
optimize space.
