MRJ - Modular Reconfigurable Joint
Description
MRJ is a modular and reconfigurable joint module. Each MRJ is composed of a motor, precision reduction gear, position encoder, brake, motor amplifier, limit switches, on-board computer controller, and internal cabling.
These modules, along with our MRW and MRS modules, are the building blocks of all our MRR systems.
Modules
- Single dof
Rotary Standard
- MRJ-0: 1200 W
- MRJ-1: 800 W
- MRJ-2: 370 W
Features
- Modules can be used as a single unit, or as part of larger system.
- Existing modules can be configured for various applications.
- Every module is essentially a "node" in a LAN (local area network).
Benefits
- Similar hardware and software for different type of robots makes training, and maintenance significantly less expensive.
- Robots and modules can be easily reconfigured for different uses.
Options
- Various speed vs. torque ratios are available for each module size.
Specifications
- Each port consists of a mechanical interface and electrical connector.
- Each rotary module has two input ports and one output port.
- The joint can be interfaced and controlled by a remotely located PC computer.
