Description

DSCS150: Product Overview
The DSCS150 is an axis computer module designed for ABB’s S4C robot controller system. This critical component functions as the central motion processing unit responsible for all real-time robot kinematics and servo control calculations. Installed in the main computer rack of the S4C controller, its primary function is to translate movement commands from the main computer into precise control signals for the drive modules that power the robot’s servo motors. It continuously processes feedback from resolvers or encoders on each robot axis to maintain closed-loop position control.
The module executes complex mathematical algorithms to compute the robot’s inverse kinematics—converting Cartesian coordinate commands from the application program into individual axis movements—and forward kinematics for position verification. It manages critical motion functions including path accuracy optimization, acceleration/deceleration profiling, and dynamic model-based control to compensate for factors like gravity and inertia. The module’s deterministic performance ensures smooth, precise robot motion essential for manufacturing applications requiring high path accuracy.

Core Features & Customer Value
The module’s high-speed processing capability enables complex path following and synchronization tasks essential for applications like arc welding, laser cutting, and material handling. For manufacturing engineers, this translates to improved process quality, reduced cycle times, and greater application flexibility. The advanced trajectory generation algorithms ensure optimal motion paths that minimize wear on mechanical components while maintaining precision.
The integrated safety functions monitor axis positions and velocities to ensure operation within defined limits. The module works in conjunction with the robot’s safety system to enable features like axis soft limits, tool center point (TCP) speed monitoring, and collision detection. For maintenance teams, the module’s diagnostic capabilities provide valuable data for predictive maintenance, helping to identify potential issues before they cause unplanned downtime.
Typical Applications
In automotive spot welding applications, the DSCS150 calculates complex coordinated movements allowing the robot to maintain optimal gun orientation while navigating around vehicle body contours. The precise control enables consistent weld quality at high production rates.
In machining applications such as deburring or polishing, the axis computer processes external sensor feedback to adapt the tool path in real-time, compensating for part-to-part variations and ensuring consistent finishing quality.
