How does deployment work?

1. Hardware configuration

Gripper is mounted, connected to the IO_Link module or robot/PLC IOs

2. Installation

The gripper is connected to drag&bot with little effort

3. Configuration drag&bot

No configuration in the gripper is necessary

4. Let´s go!

With the drag&bot operator panel, the gripper can be controlled directly and intuitively

Cobot Applications

Robot set FXCB

  • Ready for connection, for lightweight robots and cobots
  • Based on intelligent and pneumatic large-area gripper
  • Large-area gripper and required connection cable
  • Low dead weight for handling workpieces
  • Ideal for stationary handling tasks, e.g. palletizing and depalletizing

Vacuum generator ECBPi

  • Smart electric vacuum generator
  • Handling of suction-tight and slightly porous workpieces
  • Integrated interface for control, regulation and monitoring
  • Applications: mobile robotics, fully automated small parts handling, stationary handling tasks
