1.3 Robot Overview

The iX4 is a four-arm parallel robot. Servo motors in the robot base control movement of the

robot platform through mechanical links and arms. A tool flange is provided on the bottom of

the platform for mounting end-of-arm tooling.

Servo and other control functions are provided with an integrated controller(iCS-ECAT) that is

mounted in the top of the robot base.

Built-in EtherCAT communications allow this robot to operate together with EtherCAT slaves,

other Sysmac products, and the Sysmac Studio Automation Software to achieve optimum func-

tionality and ease of operation.
