Tube inspection arm (83 only)
A specific configuration of Absolute Arm is designed specifically for the tube control in tube production
workshop. This configuration is available only in level 83, 6 axes in the 2 following sizes:
The arm is installed on a raiser, available in 2 heights: small (250mm) and large (500mm).
This tube inspection arm configuration differs from a standard 83 series arm only on the counterbalance
higher pressure: the arm is designed to stay counterbalanced itself even without any handling. The operator
can then quickly grab and lower the arm for tube inspection, then release the arm back into its rest position.
RDS
The Absolute Arm is managed by RDS, which is the interface server between the arm and the final
measurement software. RDS allows to configure the arm functions, the communication protocol, probe
alignments, system verifications, and perform many other functions.
