Movotrak™ Cobot Transfer Unit

The first ever collaborative 7th axis, the Movotrak Cobot Transfer Unit (CTU) features collision detection settings for groundbreaking programming and control benefits. A plug-and-play system for quick and easy implementation into various robotic functions, Movotrak CTU adds a horizontal operating range up to 10 m to significantly boost productivity and output. Compatible with even the largest sized cobots on the market, the 7th axis slide offers flexible mounting options, and features a dual-linear-unit design for precise linear motion, and maximum moment load and stiffness.

Includes: Dual linear units, Kollmorgen servo motor, precision gearhead, carriage mounting plate for robot, Freedrive paddles, end-of-stroke limit switches, cable management, control box and software with 7th axis collision detection. For Universal Robots, a URCap is available for programming directly on the UR Teach Pendant.

What Can a 7th Axis Do For Your Productivity?

Extend your operating range up to 10 meters

  • Space required for aisles between stations
  • Potential for worker collisions/injuries
  • Limited reach by workers
  • Significant downtime due to shift changes, breaks and overall slower pace of work
  • Potentially long learning curve
  • No aisles required; saves space
  • Safer work area
  • Extended work area (up to 10 meters)
  • 24/7 operation
  • Consistent/reliable quality of work
  • Simple installation
  • Simple programming

MovoTrak Feature Highlights:

  • Collision detection settings provide users with enhanced capabilities, including:
    • User-adjustable collision detection on the MovoTrak performs similar to robotic joints.
    • Set the sensitivity during installation per your application's requirements.
    • Large surface areas on the MovoTrak linear carriage act as paddles, allowing for a safeguard stop when contacted.
    • All collision monitoring is conducted on the MovoTrak motor drive and/or digital I/O with minimal processing required from the UR controller.
    • Safety I/O connections for all stopping scenarios are supplied by the cobot and third-party safeguard devices.
  • Compatible with many cobot brands, including ABB, Denso, Doosan, Fanuc, Kassow, Kawasaki, Techman, Universal Robots and Yamaha.
  • 7th axis Freedrive programming mode allows hand-driven movements to set linear waypoints directly on the UR Teach Pendant.
  • A dual-linear-unit design helps deliver maximum moment load and stiffness, even when the cobot arm is fully extended.
  • Movotrak 7th axis can be mounted with any UR robot, including the UR20, in all directions (horizontally, wall-mounted, inverted, etc.).
  • End-of-stroke limit switches and cable management are included.
  • Mounting feet are provided to mount the 7th axis to industry-standard metric or inch extrusions.

MovoTrak Applications:

  • Machine tending
  • Material handling (bin picking, palletizing and packaging)
  • Large-scale welding, soldering, sanding and dispensing
  • Large part testing and inspection

With a Thomson Movotrak CTU, your robot-driven applications will soar in productivity thanks to an extended operating range of 10 m, 24/7 operation and more consistent quality of work.
