Dynamixel RX-64
The Dynamixel series robot actuator
is a smart, modular actuator that incorporates a gear reducer, a precision
DC motor and a control circuitry with networking functionality, all in a
single package. Despite its compact size, it can produce high torque and is
made with high quality materials to provide the necessary strength and
structural resilience to withstand large external forces. It also has the
ability to detect and act upon internal conditions such as changes in
internal temperature or supply voltage. The Dynamixel series robot actuator
has many advantages over similar products.
Precision Control
Position and speed can be
controlled with a resolution of 1024 steps.
Compliance Driving
The degree of compliance can
be adjusted and specified in controlling position.
Torque In spite of the compact size, it generates
relatively big Torque by way of the efficient speed reduction.
Close Control It can control location and speed with the
resolution of 1024.
Elasticity Setting It can set up the extent of elasticity
when controlling position with Compliance Driving.
Position, Speed It can read the current position and speed.
Communication It is easy to wire since it is connected with
Daisy chain, and up to 1M BPS of communication speed is supported.
Physical Intensity The main body is made of engineering
plastic to withstand against strong external force.
Efficiency against Since a bearing is used at the last axis
of the gear, the amount of efficiency reduction is
External Force minimal even if strong external force is
applied to the axis.
Feedback
Feedback for angular position,
angular velocity, and load torque are available.
Alarm System
The Dynamixel series robot actuator
can alert the user when parameters deviate from user defined ranges (e.g.
internal temperature, torque, voltage, etc) and can also handle the problem
automatically (e.g. torque off)
Communication
Wiring is easy with daisy
chain connection, and it support communication speeds up to 1M BPS.
Distributed Control
Position, velocity, compliance, and
torque can be set with a single command packet, thus enabling the main
processor to control many Dynamixel units even with very few resources.
Quality Engineering
Plastic
The main body of the unit is
made with high quality engineering plastic which enables it to handle high
torque loads.
Axis Bearing
A bearing is used at the final
axis to ensure no efficiency degradation with high external loads.
Status LED
The LED can indicate the error
status to the user.
Frames
A hinge frame and a side mount
frame are included.
