Transporting cardboard with perforations on the suction surface, especially on the top side, is synonymous with difficulty. By supporting it from the side, this challenge can be addressed. The weight of the hand is also 5 kg, in accordance with the payload capacity of the collaborative robot. Issue: Cardboard with perforations on the suction surface is difficult to transport. Solution: A two-sided gripper supports the workpiece from the sides, achieving a speed increase. Effect: A 20% increase in speed and the elimination of workpiece damage. *Available for download from the related catalog.

Realization of reduced compressed air consumption by replacing with multi-stage ejectors! [Background] "The consumption of compressed air has increased, necessitating the purchase and installation of a new compressor." This is a line that manufactures press parts with a diameter of φ80 to 100 using a small press machine. Ejectors were adopted for the picking system for supplying and discharging parts. The consumption of compressed air in the factory, including other lines, has increased, leading to a review of compressed air consumption and plans for additional compressors.

Case Study of Replacing Blower with Ejector as a Vacuum Source [Background] "Space-saving of the equipment is a challenge" The blower currently in use takes up a lot of space, so we received inquiries about a vacuum source that can be installed in a space-saving manner. Additionally, it was necessary to continuously operate the blower even when the equipment was not in use, leading to waste.

Fully Electric Collaborative Robot Vacuum Gripper "No Compressed Air Required, Excellent Vacuum Performance" Piab's new piCOBOT® Electric Vacuum Gripper Unit significantly enhances the versatility of collaborative robots by eliminating the need for compressed air. Its lightweight design allows for direct attachment to the flange of collaborative robot tools, and since no vacuum piping is required, the range of motion of the arm is completely unrestricted. Another advantage is its energy efficiency. The current supplied to the collaborative robot arm is sufficient to provide full functionality. With only one connection for both power supply and data flow, the entire installed unit can be quickly removed and easily relocated. To maximize the performance of both the vacuum gripper unit and the collaborative robot, it can be used with a serial communication protocol for UR e-series. The new electric vacuum gripper unit can also accommodate features such as PIAB's signature suction pads. Download the catalog here: https://www.ipros.jp/catalog/detail/757282

★Now Available for Release★ Electrostatic Discharge Prevention Model "BX ESD Series" Suction Cup The BXP ESD (BX_P or B_XP) is a product made from materials that effectively dissipate static electricity while maintaining the modularity and durability unique to BXP suction cups. This prevents the accumulation of static electricity that can lead to damage of delicate components in industries such as battery, fuel cell, electric vehicle manufacturing, and electronic products. The ESD suction cup features a black and gray color scheme, making it immediately clear that it has different specifications from the standard BXP suction cup.
