Movotrak™ CTU

Movotrak™ CTU (cobot transfer unit) from Thomson is a collaborative 7th axis for Universal Robots, which features collision detection settings for groundbreaking programming and control benefits. The 7th axis adds a horizontal operating range up to 10 metres, meaning that a cobot can be utilised for more than one workstation.

Easy to deploy

Fully compatible with Universal Robots, the Movotrak™ CTU can be programmed directly through a URCap on the UR Teach Pendant. Similar to the design of cobot joints, the MovoTrak CTU 7th axis freedrive functionality enables hand driven setting of linear waypoints during programming. Users can manually slide the cobot where they would like it to be in a sequence along the 7th axis and register that with a simple push button.

Versatile

The 7th axis can be seamlessly mounted in a horizontal, inverted or wall mounted configuration, making it an adaptable choice for diverse applications. Notably, the Movotrak CTU 7th axis is compatible with even the largest cobot models, such as the UR20 and UR30.
