Robot robotic compliance unit / collision sensor FM series

Compliance wrist in eight sizes with optional load limiter, pneumatic cylinder and/or anti-twist device Features • Prevents jamming and tilting of the workpieces • Protects robots and assembly structures from premature wear by minimizing joining forces and moments • Minimization of the cycle time • Available in up to four different versions Operating principle The adjustment of the position is made possible by specially developed elastomer elements. If a positional offset occurs, the workpiece to be joined is automatically moved by the reaction forces that occur in such a way that jamming and tilting of the joining partners is prevented. The maximum compensation movement is determined by the size of the insertion bevel on the parts to be joined and the maximum compensation movement of the elastomer elements. The compensation movement is horizontal in the X-Y directon and, in the case of angle compensation, radial around the X, Y or Z axis. After a deflection, the element returns to its initial position by self-centering.
