Kyrus has a long history of providing component positioners of all types and sizes to the automation industry. Our positioners are modular in design, meaning that is possible to quickly configure a positioner for any specific application. Furthermore, the number of moving parts is reduced helping to keep cost down and accuracy high.
All Kyrus positioners are designed with rigidity and robustness in mind and have been thoroughly tested in automation projects worldwide!
The TT100-OC is a compact 2-axis tilt and turn ‘over centre’ component positioner, which is designed for manipulating small components (nominal payload 100kg). The positioner is designed to be used with two auxiliary axis servo motors, which are in turn controlled by your robot’s controller – giving your application an additional 2 degrees of freedom and allowing a component to be presented to the robot in nearly any position or angle. Furthermore, depending upon your robot configuration, this will allow fully co-ordinated motion between the robot and the positioner. The TT100-OC can be used with any brand of cobot or robot and Kyrus can assist in the selection and specification of your auxiliary axis motors.
In cases where it is not possible to use auxiliary axis motors with your cobot or robot, Kyrus offers an external drive control unit, which can interface with your automation control system.
The table below refers to stock performance of the positioner system, falling within industry norms.
