For endless rotation at the joint of the tool interface, Moog GAT finds the right answers for robotics applications with combinations of rotary unions and electrical slip rings: Ultra-light combinations for Cobots.
Collaborating robots (“Cobots”) support people in the immediate vicinity in assembly work, the so-called human / robot collaboration (short “HRC”).
We developed a combination of Slip Ring and Rotary Union for robot-guided, automated screwdriving processes with plastic screws and monitoring of the torque. The screw is guided and positioned with a vacuum.
A control loop terminates the tightening process when the max. torque is reached.
With its steel shaft, this combination can absorb the resulting forces and torques, but at the same time it is also weight-optimised, so that it can be used on robots with a lower load capacity.
