GRIP Auto Connector AC063

The GRIP Base Connector allows quick and easy removal of the entire robot arm. The Robot arm is bolted to a quick Connect system which in turn is bolted to a table or cell. This manual Connect system allows companies to use the same robot in multiple different cells without having to unscrew the robot every time. A simple lever allows the robot to be released from its current position and taken to a new position. The entire process takes only a few seconds. It enables companies to be more flexible with the robots that they have and optimizes the use of their resources.  In case of extreme loads we recommend the Base Connector SWS200.

The SHW Connector was designed to be precise, durable and intuitive. The SHW Connector allows users to quickly change out tools, grippers or applications on a robot arm. This is accomplished through a mechanical release lever with a built-in safety. The Connector is comprised of an upper and a lower assembly. The upper assembly is attached to the robot arm while the lower assembly is attached to the tool/gripper. Connecting the two assemblies, connects the tool/gripper to the robot arm. This allows very quick installation of different tools without having to unscrew any part of the robot. This can be accomplished even with air and energy. Changing a tool/gripper with a GRIP Connector takes but a few seconds.

The Auto Connector is a new type of mechanical connection system that makes fully automatic tool changes possible. The system is composed of an upper assembly and a lower assembly. The upper assembly houses the locking mechanism, which ensures a precise and form-locking fitment between the upper and lower assembly. The locking and unlocking mechanism is activated through the robots own movement. Trays make it possible to park multiple types of end of arm tools. An external energy source is not required for the Auto Connector to perform its automatic tool change.
