Chapter 6: Options This section covers options that are available to enhance the Hornet 565. The options available are: l Tall Frame Mounting Adapters For mounting the Hornet 565 in a taller (competitor’s) frame. l ePLC Connect For using a user-supplied PLC to program the robot’s motions. l SmartVision MX industrial PC To add vision-processing power and connectivity to the robot. l SmartController EX motion controller To increase connectivity, I/O, conveyor tracking and general processing speed for the Hornet 565. l sDIO Module Add 32 inputs and 32 outputs, up to 4 sDIO modules per system. l IO Blox I/O Devices Add 8 inputs and 8 outputs, up to 4 IO Blox devices per system.
l eAIB XBELT IO Adapter cable Splits the EXPIO port into a belt encoder lead, a RS-232 lead, and a lead for either IO Blox or an Intelligent Force Sense System. l Inlet Cable Box To increase the overall robot’s IP rating to IP65. l Intelligent Force Sense System l Ball Stud Locks Allows quick detection of forces in six dimensions at the gripper. To ensure that ball joints do not separate under extreme use. 6.1 Tall Frame Adapters The Hornet 565 can be mounted in a tall frame, previously used for a competitive parallel robot, by installing a set of three frame adapters. The frame adapters lower the height of the robot by 118 mm (4.65 in.).
The lengths of the three mounting bolts will need to be increased by 118 mm. Hornet 565 Robot User's Guide, 14608-000 Rev C Page 85 of 156
