Destaco has announced the availability of cobot tooling solutions that are designed to simplify tool selection and eliminate integration design work for applications employing small payload robots or cobots in their operations. The variety of tooling solutions is designed for gripping, palletizing, machine tending, tool changing and tool extension applications up to 10-kg payloads.
Destaco’s cobot tooling solution kits feature all of the user-selected accessories, along with the hardware and tools needed for installation, reducing the need to consult an application engineer. All of the tooling solutions are compatible with cobots that have an ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 end-of-arm mounting pattern. Blank robot and tool plates are offered for those users want to use their own mounting patterns.
Destaco’s Microtool End Effectors enable the cobot to perform palletizing functions. Users that know the length, width and weight of the packages to be lifted and transferred can easily select the palletizing kit type and pre-determined vacuum cup size necessary for the application, eliminating tool design work with off-the-shelf kits.
