Product Overview

The RoboCore-C3 Collaborative Robot Controller is a next-generation, safety-critical control platform engineered for seamless human–robot collaboration in modern industrial automation environments. As an ISO/TS 15066 controller, it enables real-time risk assessment and dynamic speed/force limiting—ensuring full compliance with collaborative robotics safety standards. Certified to EN 61508 SIL3 and featuring an integrated safety PLC, the RoboCore-C3 eliminates the need for external safety relays or separate safety controllers, reducing system complexity and validation overhead. Its ultra-low 200ms end-to-end response time guarantees deterministic motion control and rapid fault reaction—critical for high-throughput production lines where uptime and worker proximity are non-negotiable.

Built for integration into flexible manufacturing systems, this collaborative robot controller supports multi-brand robot arms (UR, Techman, Doosan, and custom ROS-based platforms) via EtherCAT, PROFINET, and CANopen interfaces. Its modular firmware architecture allows OEMs and system integrators to embed proprietary motion logic, HMI protocols, and digital twin synchronization capabilities—making it ideal for smart factory deployments requiring scalability and cybersecurity-ready design.
