ctrlX FLOW6D
ctrlX FLOW6D is the planar system with six degrees of freedom. The free-floating transport platforms, so-called movers, are moved on a horizontally, vertically or overhead oriented work surface. Each mover acts in six degrees of freedom (6DOF) at high speed and with great precision – without any friction or pollution. Integration into ctrlX AUTOMATION results in an overall solution with a compact control system and apps to increase the range of functions. The result is an integrated, agile system which makes full use of the potential offered by industrial levitation.
On a working surface which can be adapted in a modular fashion, a number of differently shaped and sized movers can be controlled in six dimensions. These degrees of freedom can be combined with each other as required. The system also sets new standards with its large movement ranges, for example a floating height of up to 20 mm, a 10° tilting angle and endless rotations in any location.
