RCS: The Aim of Transforming Commissioning and Servicing Industrial Automation Technologies
Robotic automation systems play a vital role in various industries. Industrial automation technologies help improve productivity, enhance production quality, and reduce operational costs. However, the complexity of automation systems leads to complexities in setup, maintenance, and troubleshooting. To address this issue, Renishaw has developed an innovative solution to transform the process of commissioning and servicing industrial automation technologies.
The RCS product line is designed to make robotic automation more accessible by reducing costs, increasing accuracy, and improving productivity.
Overview of the RCS product line
The RCS product line comprises three products: RCS L-90, RCS T-90, and RCS P-series. Let’s take a closer look at each product.
RCS L-90: Improving Robot System Accuracy, Reducing Deployment Time, and Monitoring Robot Health
The RCS L-90 is a ballbar device that helps improve the accuracy of robot systems, reduce the time and resources needed for deployment, and monitor robot health. Integrators can evaluate the accuracy of a robot system quickly with the RCS L-90, reducing deployment time and increasing productivity. Additionally, the RCS L-90 can monitor the health of a robot system in real-time, ensuring the system remains accurate and efficient.
RCS T-90: Identifying the Root Causes of Poor Performance and Capturing Critical Robot Information
The RCS T-90 is a tri-ballbar system that enables robot users to identify the root cause of poor performance and capture critical information such as backlash, repeatability, stick-slip, and more. With the RCS T-90, users can identify problems before they become an issue, ensuring optimal robot performance.
RCS P-Series: Integrating a permanent Renishaw probing solution for in-process metrology and automatic recovery
The RCS P-Series integrates a permanent Renishaw probing solution within a robot cell, making it possible to apply in-process metrology and automatic recovery. The RCS P-Series is a critical tool for industries where quality and consistency are vital, such as aerospace, automotive, and medical devices. It enables manufacturers to maintain control over the highest standards of quality, consistency, and efficiency.
Renishaw’s expertise in metrology can address challenges with accuracy and repeatability
Renishaw’s expertise in metrology is second to none, and the RCS product line leverages this expertise to help the industrial automation industry address significant challenges with accuracy and repeatability. Renishaw’s products combine high-precision measurement with high-speed processes, ensuring both precision and productivity.
Simplifying Robot Set-up, Health Checks, and Recovery with RCS Software Suite
RCS products simplify robot setup, health checks, and recovery of robotic applications following collisions, with the help of the RCS Software Suite. The RCS Software Suite is user-friendly and features easy-to-navigate menus that allow users to control their robot’s setup and maintenance processes with ease. It includes comprehensive diagnostic tools that enable users to troubleshoot issues and recover robots quickly and efficiently.
The launch of RCS in the European market will be at Automatica 2023 in Munich on June 27th
