KeMotion control solution unites PLC, motion and robotics KEBA

The straightforward and quickly programmable combination of PLC, motion and robotics makes KEBA's KeMotion control system solution unique. KeMotion has been certified in accordance with PLCopen Part 2 since Version 2.40. Additionally, the robotics can also be controlled via PLCopen Part 4 from the PLC environment. This means that complex robot paths can be generated in the user-friendly online robotics teach-in environment. These are then implemented in the machine process via PLCopen Part 4 in the PLC environment.

Easy to use thanks to familiar programming environment
The user benefits from a single, familiar programming environment. All robot types plus the entire process and machine sequence are controlled simultaneously with just one program run.
The PLC has constant access to all robot data. As a result, robot functions can be manipulated easily and quickly via the PLC. This includes, for example, program management and operating mode management and the readout of online sensor data for path planning.
Thanks to the unique combination of PLC, motion and robotics, machine and robot control functions are perfectly tuned to each other through KeMotion. The robot is an integral part of the entire machine control system and a dedicated robot control system is not necessary.
The hardware and software for the complete system comes from a single manufacturer. This ensures a perfect interplay of all components and data and events are recorded in a uniform manner. The consistent, user-optimised HMI to control robotics, the process and the machine offers the best possible user-friendliness.
This results in a major potential saving as training, operation and servicing are required for only one instead of two pieces of equipment. Moreover, thanks to less cabling being required, there is also an effective reduction in manufacturing and service costs.
