The Elecylinder allows acceleration, velocity and deceleration to be set using numeric values, enabling engineers to adjust the motion of the actuator for smooth stopping without impact.
Automation Assembly tasks often present challenges! A lot happens in a small space - fast cycle times and high-quality finished product is paramount. Schunk offers some suggestions for common challenges.
Available in many configurations, pneumatic actuators remain essential workhorses of machine motion and increasingly are being made adaptable to the IIoT plant floor
Keeping an assembly process simple is always a smart approach to manufacturing any product. And one of the simplest ways to implement linear or rotary motion into an assembly process is with a pneumatic actuator.
Be it high loads or short cycle times - rotary modules and swivel units are constantly under pressure to deliver even better performance when it comes to handling and assembly.
From the outside, a robot appears to be an independent entity that can do many great things all on its own. But, in truth, it's the internal technology and end-of-arm tooling that enable the robot to effectively perform many types of assembly.
With the correct end-effector and prime mover, manufacturers can make sure their automation system meets exact design requirements and runs at maximum efficiency.
