FAQ - PHOENIX Robotics Lifting Column
FAQs
-
What is the Phoenix Robotics Lifting Column?
Phoenix is an industrial-grade lifting column that extends the vertical reach of robots, enabling higher stacks, taller work envelopes, and more flexible cell layouts—especially in palletizing, depalletizing, material handling, and ergonomic workstations.
-
What is the difference between Phoenix, Phoenix Compact, and Phoenix
Robotics?- Phoenix: Heavy-duty lifting column for industrial applications, handling up to 2500 kg loads.
- Phoenix Compact: Slim design for industrial or medical use, up to 130 kg, includes motor and controls but no robotic mounting plate.
- Phoenix Robotics: Designed for robotic integration, up to 130 kg, includes roboticmounting plate, plug-in software, and TCP/IP communication for seamless control.
-
How does Phoenix communicate with my system?
Phoenix uses standard Ethernet TCP/IP, which does not require a license; additional protocols are available upon request.
-
Which robots is it compatible with?
Phoenix offers basic compatibility with all robots (Ethernet TCP/IP), and plug-and-play integration for ABB, FANUC, and Universal Robots (Polyscope X).
-
How easy is it to integrate?
Phoenix Robotics offers plug-and-play integration for ABB, FANUC, and UR (Polyscope X). Connect with lifting column with the robot controller and the lifting column will be recognized immediately. Details can be found in the quick set up guide and instruction manaul.
