The software eliminates the need for a dedicated robotic controller,
associated software and handshaking routines in applications that
require a robot to handle part loading/unloading tasks. Robot movements
can be tightly coordinated with non-robotic motion, such as conveyors
and other moving mechanisms. The execution of this software reduces
engineering time in areas of configuration, parameterization and
diagnostics. Beckhoff Automation
