air-operated robotic compliance unit / collision sensor by PES S.A

FEATURES

Dynamically variable collision sensor that operate on air pressure. Breakaway threshold adjusts to match the working force ranges of robot/application
Non compressive, metal to metal seal for reliable and consistent operation
Opening of QuickSTOP air chamber at impact, pressure exhaust and switch signal stop the robot
APPLICATIONS

Automotive : Measurement, Inspection, Testing
Defense : Pick and Place
Electronics & Semiconductor : Test of PCB’s
Laboratory Automation & Life Science : Testing - Sample/ Batch ; Micro Plate Stacking ; Pick and Place
Medical Device : Case Packing
ADVANTAGES

Senses angular and compressive forces. QuickSTOP’s unique design offers protection in X, Y and Z axis
Linear and angle strokes available to remove the forces from end of arm tooling and robot wrist at trip point
Performance readiness is monitored by QuickSTOP. When pressurized, the switch indicates that the QuickSTOP is reset in proper position
