| Level Compensator Vacuum Pumps | A vacuum pump integrated within a level compensator provides a simple point-of-use system that is easier to apply than the two components separately. While the level compensator provides compliance, vacuum is generated directly at the suction cup, which improves response time for both attaching to and detaching from a work piece. Level Compensators | Level compensators are primarily used to compensate for height differences on a work piece surface and they should be installed so that all of the level compensators are fully extended while supporting the load. Level compensators also serve as shock absorbers to prevent damage to work pieces and allow greater positioning latitude for robotic applications. Extensive use of aluminum has reduced the weight of EDCO USA compensators by as much as 60 percent. Quick Changers | QCS provides a cost-effective method to increase productivity by virtually eliminating end-of-arm tool change-over time. With QCS, a robot can be re-tooled for a different part and back in service within a few minutes. Compressed air and vacuum lines are automatically connected as the tool plate mates with the clamp base on the robot arm. Rail Systems | Rail System Modules include all the features of EDCO Vacuum Grippers with a Positive or Limited Purge. In addition they include a pilot-operated cartridge valve for vacuum on/off control. The modules mount to the side of a lightweight 1-1/2 in. x 3 in. rail profile. Air supply plumbing is completely eliminated by utilizing the rail as a manifold to distribute compressed air to each module. Vacuum Cups | EDCO USA suction cup rubber is specially formulated to be non-marking and no mold release agent is used in the manufacturing process to eliminate surface residue. Rugged anodized aluminium fittings provide full load capacity and may be repeatedly used to save money. | ||||
