The system often utilizes a "Freedrive" mode, allowing users to manually move the robot along the linear track to set waypoints directly on a Teach Pendant. This eliminates the need for complex coordinate calculations for basic path planning. 4. Educational and Practical Context
Integration of Collaborative 7th Axis and Linear Motion Control Focus: Thomson Movotrak™ and Industrial RTU Systems 1. System Overview The system often utilizes a "Freedrive" mode, allowing
Modern robotic "routers"—or —are designed to extend the reach of standard robotic arms. The Thomson Movotrak™ is a prominent example of a "collaborative 7th axis" that adds a horizontal operating range of up to 10 meters to collaborative robots (cobots). 2.
