CATFISH OS / CONTROL X

Control X

Coordinate Every Axis

Control X coordinates robot joints, rails, lifts and positioners as a single machine, in real time.

WHAT IT DOES

One Machine, Not Many

Reach, posture, speed and collision risk depend on how a robot and its axes move together. Control X executes coordinated trajectories across robot joints and external axes under one deterministic motion controller.

USED BY · CELL OPERATORS, CONTROLS ENGINEERS AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICIANS

CAPABILITIES

What Control X Does

Control X functions are configured to the robot, external axes and recovery requirements for the installation.

Core Scope

Coordinated Trajectories

Robot joints and external axes in one synchronized motion.

Core Scope

EtherCAT Motion Bus

Deterministic servo control from one EtherCAT master.

Core Scope

Multi-Robot Coordination

Shared work zones between two or more W7 robots.

Core Scope

State and Recovery

Machine states and controlled resume after a stop.

Core Scope

Operator View

Robot, axis, program, cycle, weld and safety state on one screen.

Core Scope

Safety Integration

Runs beneath an independent safety layer software cannot override.

CONNECTIONS

Where Control X Sits

Control X executes released motion and reports machine state to the rest of Catfish OS.
