AUBURN HILLS, MI—DESTACO has introduced a series of end-of-arm tooling specifically for applications employing small-payload robots or cobots. The tooling is designed for gripping, palletizing, machine tending, tool changing and tool extension applications up to 10 kilograms in total payload.
Visumatic equipment installs screws, nuts, bolts, pins, and specialty fasteners. From robot end of arm tooling to vision guided robots, engineered fastening is their only business and they've been at it for over 55 years.
In 1994, Bernd Walter founded Creative Automation Inc. (CAI) to provide turnkey automated equipment for manufacturers. CAI’s initial focus was on gantry robots and pick-and-place machines.
The efficiency and reliability of an industrial robot largely depend on its end-of-arm tooling. However, engineers often forget that the interface between the end-effector and the robot arm also plays a critical role.
