AZ Robot Controller
The AZ Series Robot Controller with EtherNet/IP™ enables simple and efficient control of custom robotic systems using Oriental Motor’s AZ Series motors and actuators. Designed for easy setup, it supports programming, operation, and verification in a streamlined workflow.
With built-in EtherNet/IP communication, the controller integrates seamlessly with PLC-based systems, allowing direct control and real-time data exchange. It supports a wide range of robot configurations, including Cartesian, SCARA, and articulated systems.
Combined with intuitive programming tools and high-precision motion control, the AZ Series controller provides a flexible and reliable solution for applications such as pick-and-place, assembly, and material handling.
