E-touch II

The E-touch II is an advanced controller that is used with the RCII Series and, in its K variant, for the ultra high speed HSA Series. This controller makes full use of its 10.4″ full-color touch screen to show its graphical user interface to best effect. In addition to the real control buttons located around the screen, graphical touch buttons are used on the screen to provide a series of options that are always relevant to your current task.

Those involved with programming will find numerous useful features on the E-touch II:

Lead Through Teaching
This application simplifies the task of program editing by allowing you to record manual operations and also to use/alter standardised template movements in any axis to create the required result. Lead Through Teaching enables you to produce results from the robot without the need for specialist knowledge or the use of an external computer.

Easy Teaching/Easy Screen
The Easy Teaching application simplifies programming tasks even further by combining the Position, Speed, and Timer settings onto one screen. Using the integral Action Chart Display you can simply choose from the displayed icons to create your desired sequence of moves. A related Easy Screen mode is available for operators which similarly simplifies options into selectable screen prompts.

3D Simulator
The in-built 3D graphical simulator lets you check the result of your new program before sending it through to the robot. This feature is a valuable time saving tool when perfecting new routines and it also greatly reduces the chances of damage caused by incorrect commands.

Auto Slow-down
When enabled, this feature uses custom algorithms to automatically decrease the motion speed of any axis just prior to part placement. This can significantly reduce tool vibration and negates the need for time delays within the program, thus allowing overall cycle times to be improved.

Troubleshooting Mode
Further assistance is provided by the troubleshooting mode which can be used to pinpoint errors or problems with the programmed operation.
