<Multi-axis controller>

RCX series

(RCX221 / 222) (RCX240)

Supports all YAMAHA robot models

The RCX series supports all YAMAHA robot models such as the

PHASER, FLIP-X and XY-X. It makes most types of applications

possible since single-axis (FLIP-X/PHASER) and Cartesian robot can

be used in any desired combination (not including some small single-

axis robots).

Complete absolute specs

The RCX uses complete absolute specifications so of course no

origin return is needed when the power is turned on. It also supports

incremental specifications on a completely identical system (The

PHASER series utilizes a magnetic scale and supports semi-absolute

or incremental speciﬁ cations.)

Big boost absolute data backup time

Making an energy-saving backup circuit has drastically extended the

retention time for absolute position data with no power applied. Ordinary

model backup time was a maximum of 1 month has now been boosted

to 1 year. Current position information can now be monitored during

long vacations, equipment storage, or even during transport, and origin

return is not needed when power is restored. This allows quick and easy

production startups.

Area check output function

This function provides an output signal when

the robot enters a preset area. Up to four

areas can be speciﬁ ed.

Supports the robot vision “iVY System”

The RCX series also supports the YAMAHA robot vision “iVY System”

capable of handling a vast range of applications yet is simple to setup.

Installing the vision board inside the controller unit drastically simpliﬁ es

the calibration task that up to now took a lot of time and trouble.

Performing position offset at image recognition widens the device

sphere of applications and makes it usable for general-purpose tasks

(only supported on RCX240).

Dual-synchronous drive

Equipped with the dual drive function to control 2 axis in synchronization,

which is of effective use for carrying heavy items and long stroke

operation with the Cartesian robot. This function enables good use of

high speed, acceleration/deceleration features of the YAMAHA robots.

(Note. For the dual drive function, custom order arrangement is required.

For more information, contact YAMAHA.)

Double-carrier anti-collision control function

Collisions between carriers when using double-carriages can be

prevented by a control function within the controller. Former collision

prevention measures such as zone judgments or external sensors are no

longer needed so double-carriers are now easier to use than ever before.

3D circular interpolation control

2D and 3D linear and circular interpolation

ARC control are possible, making the

RCX141 controller ideal for sealing work,

etc. (3-dimensional interpolation is only

available on the RCX240)

Palletizing function

This function can easily deﬁ ne a

maximum of 20 types of pallets

by just entering the teaching

points for the 4 corner positions

on the pallet. Entering teaching

points along the height allows

handling cubic pallets. Specify

the defined pallet No. and

execute the movement command

to perform palletizing. The program can execute various actions such as

1 point

pallet, pallet 1 point, pallet pallet, etc.

Hand deﬁ nition

This function operates the robot based on coordinates when the tool tip

has been installed in the tip of the robot shaft in an offset position. This

is especially effective during tool rotation on SCARA robots and robots

with rotating shafts.
