Quickly assembled, securely fixed: New mounting clamps for e-chains on cobots24/11/2018
In the course of Industry 4.0, interaction of human and machine is increasingly becoming the focus of automation. Therefore, collaborative robots are considered the future. The so-called cobots are mainly used as assistants in simple or interacting activities and - in contrast to large and fast industrial robots - work hand in hand with humans. For reliable energy supply to cobots and industrial robots, igus offers the optimal energy chain solution with its triflex R range. In addition to metal clamps, customers can now use new cobot designed clamps to attach the energy chain to the robot arm. The design with rounded edges increases workplace safety by reducing the risk of injury when in contact with the robot. The plastic clamps can be quickly attached to the arm of the robot by a screw connection. The triflex R is simply attached to the clamp by a clip and fixed. The new clamps are suitable for cobots from Universal Robots, TMS and Kuka LBR iiwa robot arms. |
