The cable between the Mirka AIROS sanding head and the control panel is specifically designed to be used in robotic applications. For the time being, the AIROS comes without a force sensor. External load and force sensors can be fitted, depending of the robot in question.

The following electronic components are included in the different panels:

• Modbus: Motor Drive Unit 48 V
• Power Supply Unit Profinet: Motor Drive Unit 48 V
• Power Supply Unit Profinet Gateway 24 V
• Power Supply Unit Profinet Adapter cable 

Codes are available in the manual. Every component can be ordered separately. The Motor Drive Unit can also be connected directly to the 48 V feed of the main panel. 

Codes for each component, along with the electrical installation overview, are available in the manual. The motor driver is a non-PLC system that takes input/gives output from a range of different protocols.

It is possible to be connected to a PLC and from there to an HMI. The choice between the different communication systems (Profinet, Modbus and Digital Interface) is with the end-user, depending of the communication system that is being used in a specific application.
