Learn robot programming with TM Robotics

TM Robotics has a state of the art training facility in the UK from which it provides various levels of training, from basic robot programming to more advanced courses.

Advanced training includes utilising the Toshiba Machine built in PLC, taking advantage of conveyor tracking functionality, field bus communications and applying vision systems to robotics applications.

As well as its training facilities, TM Robotics has developed the SCARA starter pack a purpose built portable robot suite that allows engineers to learn to be a robot programmer in a single day.

The starter pack contains a TH180 mini SCARA robot, which features an arm length of 180mm, payload of 2kg and repeatability of ±0.01mm. The robot is ideal for use in laboratory work or electronics manufacture, but as a display tool acts as a representative of the entire Toshiba Machine range.

Nigel Smith, the managing director of TM Robotics explained, “Many customers are nervous about taking their first step into the world of robotics. It needn’t be painful though, our emphasis on training means that the customer is prepared for all likely eventualities and has total control over the machine. As a result, they can take full advantage of the versatility of our industrial robots, which are capable of matching the development of their product lines pace for pace.”
