DSQC346E: Core Features & Customer Value
-
High-Precision Motion Control: The 250MHz Motorola PowerPC processor enables fast calculation of motion trajectories, ensuring accurate positioning (±0.01mm repeatability) and smooth speed control for robot joints. This reduces waste and improves product quality in manufacturing applications. -
Multi-Axis Integration: Supports up to 6 axes in a single module (M2000 robot), minimizing wiring and reducing the footprint of the robot control cabinet. This simplifies installation and maintenance, saving time and labor costs. -
Robust Industrial Design: The module is enclosed in a durable metal chassis with overvoltage and overcurrent protection, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments (e.g., automotive plants, foundries). This increases uptime and reduces the risk of costly downtime. -
Seamless Controller Integration: Uses the S4C Bus for communication with ABB robot controllers (e.g., IRC5), ensuring low-latency data transfer for real-time motion control. This compatibility extends to ABB’s robot programming software (e.g., RobotStudio), simplifying system setup and programming. -
Scalable Axis Configuration: Supports both single and multi-axis setups, allowing customers to choose the configuration that best fits their application (e.g., 4 axes for a small assembly robot, 6 axes for a large welding robot). This flexibility accommodates diverse automation needs. ABB DSQC346E
DSQC346E: Typical Applications
-
Automotive Manufacturing: Welding (spot welding, arc welding), painting, and assembly of vehicle components (e.g., doors, chassis). The module’s precise control ensures consistent weld quality and paint finish. -
Material Handling: Palletizing, pick-and-place operations, and conveyor belt control. The module’s speed control enables efficient handling of heavy loads (up to 1000kg for M2000 robots). -
Electronics Manufacturing: Assembly of circuit boards, semiconductor wafer handling, and precision component placement. The module’s torque control prevents damage to delicate parts. -
Foundries and Metal Processing: Pouring molten metal, handling hot ingots, and grinding operations. The module’s robust design withstands high temperatures and vibration in these environments.
