Controllers

*1: Acceleration/deceleration rates may be limited according to the motion pattern, load mass and amount of offset.
*2: Horizontal 300 mm, vertical 25 mm, round-trip with coarse positioning. Continuous operation is not possible beyond the effective load ratio.
*3: Positioning repeatable accuracy in one-direction movement, when the environmental temperature is constant 20°C. Not absolute positioning accuracy. Positioning repeatability for X-Y and C are for when Z-axis is at the upper-most position. Trajectory accuracy is not ensured.
*4: Optional design duct for hand wiring and tubing is planned.
