RP-2 | AS1018.002, AS1018.003, AS1018.012

Advanced motion control for high-performance applications, handles up to 32 interpolated axes via EtherCAT

The top of the range for industrial motion control

RP-2 represents the highest level of technology among Robox control units. Designed for complex and computationally intensive applications, it handles up to 32 interpolated axes with optimized performance through native integration with EtherCAT.

The hardware can support frequencies up to 2KHz (500μs), taking full advantage of EtherCAT fieldbus performance to ensure fast synchronization and accuracy.
