Fairino DC-Control Box
The Fairino DC-Control Box is a powerful robot controller for collaborative robots from Fairino, specifically designed for modern industrial and mobile robotics applications. Its direct current architecture makes it ideal for use in both stationary automation systems and battery-operated platforms such as autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and mobile manufacturing units.
The controllers provide precise motion control, extensive communication options, and seamless integration into existing automation environments. Depending on application requirements, various performance variants are available, capable of reliably controlling both compact cobots and heavy-load robots.
Optimized for Mobile and Stationary Robotics
Thanks to their direct operation with direct current, the Fairino DC Control Box can be directly connected to battery systems. This eliminates the need for additional AC voltage conversion in many applications, increasing energy efficiency and simplifying system architecture. This makes the controllers particularly interesting for mobile robotic systems and flexible production environments.
At the same time, they are well-suited for traditional industrial applications where a compact, powerful, and reliable robot controller is required.
Extensive Communication and Integration Options
The Fairino DC Control Box supports standard TCP/IP as well as Modbus TCP/RTU, allowing for easy integration into existing machines, production lines, and automation systems. Additional industrial fieldbus protocols such as PROFINET, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, and CC-Link are available as options.
For developers and integrators, Fairino offers a comprehensive software development kit (SDK) with support for C#, C++, Python, ROS, and ROS2. This enables rapid development of custom automation solutions and flexible expansion of existing systems.
Robust Design for Industrial Environments
All variants feature a robust metal housing with an IP54 protection rating and are designed for reliable continuous operation in industrial environments. The compact dimensions allow for space-saving integration into machines, control cabinets, and mobile platforms.
The controllers are delivered without cables, providing maximum flexibility in the selection and configuration of power supply, communication, and robot connections.
