Denmark-based OnRobot has introduced two new products — the Digital I/O Converter Kit and the Quick Changer — which, together with other OnRobot end-of-arm tools (EoATs), creates a one-system solution that is intended to simplify automation.
OnRobot’s Digital I/O Converter Kit allows OnRobot EoATs to work with a full range of collaborative and light industrial robot brands. All OnRobot products now have a unified mechanical and communications interface based on the OnRobot Quick Changer, which is now an integrated part of all OnRobot products. An additional Dual Quick Changer incorporates these same new capabilities while allowing the use of two tools in one cycle, mixing and matching to suit application needs and maximising robot utilisation.
With the OnRobot Quick Changer a single cable provides a universal interface for tools and communications, so there is no need to disconnect cables when changing tools, and extended communications options support a full range of robotic platforms.
All OnRobot products now have a unified communication platform using standard fieldbus protocols, making it easy to program the tools, regardless of robot used.
For robots that connect through digital I/O, the OnRobot one-system solution includes an OnRobot WebLogic interface. Using the IP address of the OnRobot Compute Box, manufacturers can sign in via the OnRobot WebClient from a phone or any other network-connected device to monitor the robot or create simple robot programs.
