Feature

        1. Advanced functionality allowing high-level equipment construction
                Multiple robots can be operated simultaneously through the high-speed communication. Use of link among controllers makes it possible to store programs into only one controller. Newly developed algorithms achieve reduction of the positioning time and improvement of the tracking accuracy.

        Multiple robots can be controlled only with one master controller.
                The RCX340 controller allows high-speed communication among the controllers. As the master controller sends operation commands to each slave controller, programs and points can be controlled only with the host master controller.
                Additionally, as the RCX340 controller flexibly supports multi tasks, the data exchanging using the PLC can be simplified. Simultaneous start and arrival of each robot can also be controlled freely.
                Complicated and precise robot system using many axes can be constructed more simply at low costs.

        Smooth movement is achieved by greatly improving the motion functions.
                As a new servo motion engine is incorporated into the controller, various operations can be linked. Newly developed algorithms achieve reduction of the positioning time and improvement of the tracking accuracy.

Expansion of CONT option functions       The speed is made faster by liking dif ferent operations, such as PTP, interpolation operation, and conveyor tracking.	Improvement of operation speed       Use of linked PTP makes it possible to link all operations as much as possible. As operations with different acceleration/deceleration time are linked at the maximum level by giving priority to the operation time, the movement time can be greatly.	Proper use according to applications       When performing the continuous operation at a constant speed, such as sealing, the conventional PATH is used. When giving priority to the movement time, the liked PTP is used. An optimal operation suitable for the application can be selected.

        More intuitive arch motion designation is possible.
                As the arch motion route designation method is changed, the designation method is simplified and more intuitive designation is possible.

Optimal acceleration/deceleration motion                 Acceleration/deceleration motion that operates at a high speed while suppressing the vibration is generated.
Compact design                 The outside dimensions are approx. 355 mm (W) x 195 mm (H) x 130 mm (D). The volume ratio is reduced approx. 85% when compared to the conventional 4-axis controller to achieve the compact design and make the installation inside the control panel easy.
Improvement of cycle time                 The speed is made faster with the YK-XG series.                 Example : YK400XG                 Standard cycle time operation 0.49 sec. 0.45 sec.

        User memory capacity is increased.

The number of points is greatly increased.	Total capacity of programs and points

        New support software "RCX-Studio" with improved visibility and operability
                The program debugging functions are enhanced to support multi tasks. The quick setup is possible with easy-to-use operability and program input support function.

        Easier to use and quicker setup when compared to YAMAHA robots/Effective maintenance

New programming box PBX This programming box supports three languages,"Japanese", "English", and "Chinese". Use of color display greatly improves the visibility. Function addition and edit operations become easy to allow even a novice operator with less programming skill to operate the programming box. A function to save the controller data into a USB memory is also incorporated into this programming box.

        3. More fulfilled expandability
                RS-232C and Ethernet ports are provided as standard equipment. A wide variety of high-speed and large capacity field networks, such as CC-Link, DeviceNet™, and EtherNet/IP™ are supported as options. Connections with generalpurpose servo amplifier or other company's VISION are easy. So, the RCX340 is called "connectable controller".
