CONTROL SYSTEM FOR ADVANCED MACHINE AND ROBOT BUILDERS

The MOTORCORTEX Motion Control Suite is a highly innovative, fully featured high-performance motion control software suite, including a robot arm control and programming solution. The MOTORCORTEX Robot UI has a focus on collaborative robotics, but can be used for any multi-axis kinematics. MOTORCORTEX is a vast standard software stack that runs on a broad range of industrial and embedded computers, and is individually configured for a given OEM product.

FEATURES

  • Industrial-grade hard-realtime performance (up to 4 kHz cycle frequency)
  • MOTORCORTEX uses EtherCAT to communicate with Automation Devices
  • (CAN, Profinet, PowerLink are also possible)
  • Secure and extremely fast communication middleware built-in
  • Access to all system data at high streaming speeds
  • Free and open APIs for all major programming languages, so users can extend the capability of a MOTORCORTEX system
  • Enabling Technology to give data-science companies access to high-definition machine data. E.g. for development of Predictive Maintenance applications

REDUCED
TIME TO MARKET

Using MOTORCORTEX for robots, machines, AGVs/AMRs or generic control loops we reduce the development time, cost and shorten the time to market significantly. It is already done, you don´t need to develop

MOTORCORTEX BENEFITS

Reduced Time to Market

No development time because Motorcortex features of Turn-key Apps for most robotic applications. It enables fast development of custom apps because of modules and simulation capability. By using MOTORCORTEX, you get profitable faster and you can focus on your innovation, don’t spend time and risk on critical infrastructure.

Hardware independence

No hardware vendor lock-in mimizes the risk.

Control

your robot, AGV, AMR or Machine without developing any code, just by using easy built in apps.

Manage

Trace and manage your software deployments and machine configurations in an intuitive way.

Maintain and access 

Get immediate, high speed, secure access to all machine data.

Develop

Achieve high quality machine control software without coding and an easy-to-use-interface.

Real-time Digital Twin

The digital twin enables parallel hardware and software development and reduces the time needed for development signifcantly. 

Collaborate

Work simultaneously with clients or colleagues though the motorcortex.io cloud.

Create

With a few mouseclicks you create highly interactive user Interfaces for the browser and control your application with them. Interact with your machines with free and open APIs

MOTION CONTROL SOFTWARE

MOTORCORTEX is a hard-real-time Linux-based Control System for high-end industrial applications. It provides real-time control of industrial hardware over EtherCAT and a very high-performance communication layer to higher level applications, such as a User Interface or Data Analysis Tools.

MOTORCORTEX allows high-speed streaming communication directly to the webbrowser (without an intermediate server), which is a game-changer in industry. It is now possible to build highly-responsive web-applications for extremely smooth interaction with machines.

MOTORCORTEX has open API’s for all major languages like Javascript, Python and C++. This offers much more freedom than current industrial control systems and allows true Industry 4.0 applications with only a few lines of code. Communication to legacy PLC systems is supported through OPC-UA.

Communication with MOTORCORTEX is as easy as setting up a simple webpage. With a few lines of Javascript code you can connect to your machine directly and securely from any Webbrowser and exchange data at blazing speeds. No other industrial communication system is as easy to setup. MOTORCORTEX-based Applications are already setup to share all their data automatically in the Realtime-Database, so external applications or services can access the data.

MOTORCORTEX ROBOT

MOTORCORTEX Robot is a complete application suite for any type of robot. Both Serial Mechanisms (e.g. Anthropomorphic, Scara) as well as Parallel Mechanisms (Hexapods, Delta-robots) are supported. Features include:

  • Path planning (cartesian motion, joint motion)
  • Forward and inverse Kinematics and Dynamics
  • Motion Programming Language (move commands, set , get , math operators, unlimited variables, flow control (loop, if), triggers)
  • User interface (browser-based), so it can run on any modern multi-touch tablet or laptop
  • Manual Control (Smooth Jogging)
  • Compliance mode (for suitable robot hardware)
  • Collision Detection
  • Moving Reference Frames (for operation on for instance a conveyor belt)
  • Toolchanging
  • Palletizing Wizard
  • Motorcortex open data interface (all robot internal data is available through API)
  • Data Streaming interface (option), to stream setpoint data in realtime to the robot

MOTORCORTEX Robot is Industry 4.0 from the ground up. It controls this robot in hard-realtime and is fully user-programmable. The MOTORCORTEX Motion Control Core makes sure that all the robot internal data is distributed at high speeds to connected clients. The screen in the background shows the MOTORCORTEX Robot user interface. The tablet in the foreground shows a dashboard created with MOTORCORTEX Vis and is now showing real-time power consumption of each axes individually and the overall power consumption.
