Güdel announces TrackMotion support for new KUKA Agilus Robot
Gudel’s TrackMotion technology, now in its third generation, supports the new Agilus robot from KUKA. The smaller footprint of today’s TrackMotion design allows the compact KUKA Agilus robot to fit in tight spaces even while extending the robot work envelope. Midwest Engineered Systems (MWES) recently highlighted this with a machine tending application in highly restricted space.
“Gudel made this easy for us,” says Vincent Panzarella, project manager, Midwest Engineered Systems Inc. “We were able to download 3D models of their new TMO-1-C for immediate inclusion in the system layout. We determined in advance the carriage on the rail had to be lengthened to give us enough reach.”
