OPTIONS AND SPECIAL INFORMATION:
Light band for variants for Universal Robots, Techman Robot and FANUC
Actuation of the light band is possible for the variants –UREK for Universal Robots, -TMEK for Techman Robot, and -FCRXEK for FANUC with external cabling. Digital signals for actuation are not available for the variants -URID, -TMID and -FCRXID. For FANUC (variant –FCR7), use of the light band is possible for direct connection of the gripper to the robot control system. For the connection via the EE interface, the actuation of the light band is not provided.
Manually adjustable gripping force
With an integrated rotary switch, the gripping force can be adjusted for the Co-act EGP-C 40 in four stages from 100%, 75%, 50%, and 25%. To adjust the gripping force, the service flap must be opened.
Integrated sensor system
The gripper has two integrated inductive proximity switches. With them, the "open" and "closed" position of the gripper is monitored as standard. A sensor can alternatively be used depending on the area for workpiece monitoring. For this, the sensor must be manually adjustable. For this, a service flap must be opened for the size 40.
SAC - safety notes
In the enclosed assembly and operating manual, extensive safety notes on the use of the gripper are also included. The instructions also provide information and recommendations on the overall application.
