Line robot | DLE-LG-0002 | Workspace 800 x 500mm

Line robot
igus offers linear robots as surface, line and room linear robots for a wide variety of tasks. igus linear robots contain pre-configured drylin linear modules and linear axes with igus stepper motors as well as all components necessary for self-assembly.

Application examples
Typical applications of our drylin® line robots are pick & place, conveyor belt picking and stacking tasks. They usually offer the platform on which our customers build their application. For example, a gripper can be mounted very easily to enable sorting tasks. Our linear robots move in different industries such as the electronics industry, medical technology, industrial manufacturing, etc.

Y-axis
consisting of: drylin® ZLW-10120 toothed belt axis, toothed belt tension 200N, feed 75mm/rev, aluminium profile, surface: hard-anodised, neoprene toothed belt, black, guide carriage in length 150mm, exchange pillow block made of anodised aluminium, shaft end supports made of aluminium, driven by an igus stepper motor in installation size NEMA24 in the version with M12 connector and encoder

Z-axis
consisting of: drylin® GRR-1280 cantilever axis, AWMR hollow shafts, feed: 72.26mm/rev, aluminium shafts, guide carriage in length 100mm, incl. adjustable pillow blocks, shaft end supports made of aluminium, driven by an igus stepper motor in installation size NEMA24 in the version with M12 connector and encoder

Control system
The igus Robot Control software enables simple and intuitive robot control and programming and thus an easy entry into automation. The modular design allows different igus kinematics, such as delta robot, to be controlled. The linear robot can be controlled directly with all its advantages by our igus® Robot Control.
The free and licence-free igus Robot Control software is integrated into the control system and thus accesses a uniform operating concept and continuous communication services for many components of a system. This means less project planning and faster commissioning.
The igus Robot Control is not a part of the product and can optionally be purchased from us. A master control system is not necessary.

If you want to use your own (robot) control system, that is no problem.
Alternatively, there is also the possibility to operate each axis individually with a control system. For example with our igus® D1 dryve motor control system. With this control architecture, you need a motor control system and an additional master control system per linear axis or motor, which controls the coordination of the movement. You then also have to program the inverse kinematics for the delta robot yourself in your development environment.
The motor control systems are not part of the product and can optionally be purchased from us. A master control system is currently not offered by igus.

Optional accessories
Cable set for 2-axis kinematics in 3, 5 or 10m, igus® Robot Control for linear robots or Further sizes available separately upon request.

Further information
The maximum payload is up to 10kg. In this case, the motor of the Z-axis is heavily stressed and the wear increases. If you are unsure whether you can use the product as desired, please contact us. For a technical design, we can provide you with different installation sizes with stroke of up to 6m and 20kg load. Please contact us for this purpose or use our linear robot configurator (Beta).
