INSTRUMENTATION & CONTROL SUPERVISION & CONTROL ROOM SOFTWARE ENGINEERING OPERATIONAL INTELLIGENCE

GTD is the developer of GENROBOT, the

remote handling framework for ITER

GENROBOT is a generic software controller for roboticdevices, designed to facilitate fast development andintegration of robotic applications. GENROBOT has beenengineered in accordance to IEC62138 Class B and IEC61508SIL-2 safety standards, ensuring a high level of quality andmaking it a unique controller, as there are no otherequivalently-certified COTS products available in the market.

GENROBOT provides a wide range of functionalities forremotely commanding and operating manipulator arms. Thesefunctionalities include basic actions such asenabling/disabling axes or zeroing entire kinematic chainsand complex motions such as point-to-point or lineartrajectories in task space. All these are perfomed using amulti-robot architecture that enables the control of severalrobots from the same CPU, but also their end-effectors or anyother simple multi-axis machines such as conveyors or toolsdrawers.

GENROBOT is an open source

development managed by the

European Domestic Agency of

the ITER Project (F4E).

Any third party can request F4E access to GENROBOT to integrate the software into a device for ITER or for any other purpose.

GTD offers specific integration services and full ad-hoc developments based on GENROBOT for any interested party.

GTD is already collaborating with VTT in Finland, which manufactures the first remote handling device in integrating GENROBOT.

This is a very challenging task, considering that CODAC interfaces tomore than 30 different plant systems which are developed and procured by theITER partners. These plant systems generate and exchange an estimated totalnumber of about 1,000,000 signals.

important role to play in the

ITER Tokamak. When operation

begins, it will be impossible to

make changes, conduct
