The supporting facilities for collaborative robots (Cobot) refer to the peripheral equipment and system components necessary for their efficient, safe, and flexible operation.
End effector: The robot's "hand" As the component that directly contacts the workpiece, the end effector determines "what" the robot can "do":
Electric gripper: Such as the SCHUNK EGU series, supporting precise gripping of workpieces of different shapes and possessing adaptive adjustment capabilities.
Flexible gripper: Capable of gripping fragile or irregular objects (such as electronic components, food), becoming a growing trend.
Specialized tool heads: Including tightening guns, welding guns, nozzles, suction cups, etc., meeting specific process requirements.
Vision System:2D/3D vision cameras and binocular positioning systems are used for workpiece recognition, positioning, and guidance, enhancing the robot's perception capabilities.
