ALL BENEFITS AT A GLANCE
The benefits of setpoint optimization are both measurable and strategic:
● Higher throughput: smarter movement reduces unnecessary delays and allows machines to complete cycles faster. In some cases, we’ve improved short-range movements (under 50 mm) by up to 50%, with total output gains of 20–30%.
● Increased precision: by reducing vibrations, machines perform delicate tasks more accurately, even at higher speeds.
● Lower energy consumption: efficient coordination between motors leads to lower power use, especially in machines with many modular and movable components.
● Collision avoidance: especially in robotic arms or AGVs, optimized motion paths can prevent potential crashes and extend equipment lifetime.
THE GROWING IMPACT ON HIGH-TECH INDUSTRIES
Across industries, machines are constantly on the move: picking, placing, scanning, sorting, assembling. In many of these systems, speed and precision are non-negotiable. That’s where setpoint optimization is already proving its value.
In the semiconductor industry, even a fraction of a second can impact output. Machines here perform high-speed, repetitive tasks and optimizing their movement can lead to significant throughput or accuracy gains.
In robotics and medical devices, movement isn’t just about speed. It also needs to be safe and predictable. When multiple components operate close together, motion optimization helps prevent collisions and ensures tasks are performed with pinpoint accuracy.
In logistics, autonomous mobile robots navigate busy environments where timing and coordination are critical. With optimized paths and smarter motion control, these systems can operate smoothly without bottlenecks or downtime.
No matter the industry, if a machine moves, there’s potential to move smarter and better.
PARTNERING WITH SIOUX FOR SETPOINT OPTIMIZATION
At Sioux, we develop the full solution in-house. Our process brings together deep mathematical knowledge and real-world implementation power. We offer:
● System modeling based on your machine architecture
● Performance evaluation through digital simulation
● Algorithm selection using WARP or custom techniques
● Integration into motion control software
● Validation through test scenarios or real-world data
WARP, our proprietary library, is already integrated with SAXCS and outperforms many alternatives on speed and adaptability. This gives us a head start on projects that demand both precision and speed.
