In automotive industry, robot had been use wisely for welding
vehicle body. The main reason to use robot to replace human in do welding. The
replacement human with robot for welding after consider working environment not
safe for human.
Robots require integrating with several equipment to
make it system fully function and safe for human that working near to robot.
Robot system consists of robot itself, robot control
panel (RCP) and main control panel (MCP). All device in robot system connected
using CC-Link cable. CC-Link cables function to transport data from MCP to RCP
and RCP to robot.
Inside MCP and RCP had one CC-Link master module that
functions as communication port for connect CC-Link cable with RCP or MCP.

CC-Link is an open, field-level
network protocol that provides for the high speed communication linking of a
wide range of automation devices over a single cable.
The table below show CC-Link
communication speed. Speed of data transfers depend on CC-Link cable length.
