Faced with a need to assemble small precision parts with high accuracy and efficiency, Epson in 1981 began developing robots to manufacture Seiko wristwatches. Expertise gained from developing original and subsequent robots has been passed on to create Epson’s current lineup of robots, which are renowned for their high precision and high reliability operation at fast speeds. Epson has also refined its robots to include space-saving, power-saving and advanced controller technologies. Epson robots: Reliable for every process

EPSON RC +・ Robot control software
Enables operations in which a camera or sensor is used to detect work on a conveyor and a robot is used to handle the work Supports linear and circular conveyors
●Can be used instead of manual operations●Can operate without stopping●Supports low-volume production of a wide variety of products
Easy-to-use image processing option that includes geometric correlation pattern matching that is tolerant to changes in brightness level as a standard feature ● Easy to lay out equipment● Can easily set image processing settings using a GUI● Easy to match coordinates of the robot with coordinates of the camera● The robot program and the image processing program were developed using the same software
GUI Builder is a tool for creating GUIs.
GUIs and robot programs can be linked together to easily create an operational screen for various events such as the starting and stopping of an application simply by dragging and dropping and significantly reduce the time for developing an operational screen.
By using VB guide, you can link software created using Visual Basic , Visual C , or LabVIEW to a robot.

You can activate and stop equipment from a convenient location.
(For RC180)
4 ports per board
32 input and 32 output ports per board
■ Fieldbus I/O
You can perform teaching while moving the robot at a separate location from the controller You can confirm the I/O state, the operational status of the program, and error history.
Various motors, such as motor for driving a conveyor, can be controlled using robot language ●1 board can be used to control up to 4 axes
