Robox designs and manufactures a family of motion controllers for robots, machine tools, flexible machines. These controllers are applied in a variety of fields: robotics, paper industry, glass industry, marble industry, wood industry, food industry, packaging, textile industry, fibre optic handling, printing machines, etc.

A CANopen interface allows communication of these controllers with remote devices.

As master they can handle:

• Drives with CiA 402 protocol (position, speed and torque control are available)
• Remote I/O with CiA 301 protocol

As slave they can be interfaced through the DeviceNet protocol.

The powerful RDE tool (Robox Development Environment) allows the user to easily describe the net, while the Robox R programming language allows to quickly build the desired motion laws for gearings and cams.
Teleservicing and on-line debug tools are available as well.
