Hello,
We want to begin with designing / programming robot cells. Do you have an advise how to set up a robot cell to be prepared for the future? Robot cell set up like 1) Robot master, safety circuits by robot controller (light curtains for example), programm choice by barcode reader, HMI interface to operator on the screen of Teach Pendant, Vision camera integrated in robot controller.
Or like 2) Robot slave, PLC master, safety circuit by PLC, Programm choice by barcode to PLC and the PLC to the Robot controller, HMI of PLC supplier and there on the connection to the operator, Vision camera integrated in robot controller
Robot cells will be used for assembly handling different products and glueing products.
Can anyone give an advise what is wise to do? Which advises can you give me? In the future we also want to have the possibility to monitor the robot cell, like error messages, OEE, real time monitoring, .....
Thank you already in advance.
