DENSO Robotics Joins Rockwell Automation

DENSO Robotics announced that it will participate as an EncompassTM Product Partner in the Rockwell Automation PartnerNetworkTM. Through Encompass Product Partners, customers can quickly locate complementary products that best solve any application challenges. These products are critical components or connectivity solutions that extend and enhance Rockwell Automation installations.

Along with the partnership, DENSO has introduced new Add-On Instructions (AOIs) for its RC7 robot controller, which allow DENSO robots to be controlled and programmed directly from a Rockwell Automation CompactLogixTM PLC or ControlLogix PAC via EtherNet/IP. The AOIs enable even new robotics users to easily install, program, operate and support robot applications using the familiar Rockwell Automation RSLogixTM interface.

“We are proud to be associated with such an outstanding company as Rockwell Automation,” said Peter Cavallo, robotics sales manager, DENSO Sales California. “We are also looking forward to working with more Rockwell Automation customers. Our new AOIs make it even easier for them to use our robots.”
