Project Description
Custom Designed End-Of-Arm Tool
Tested and proven support for picking virtually anything
The End-of Arm Tool (EoAT) is the critical piece of
equipment between the take-out robot and your product.
EoATs provide a means of reliably removing parts from
your mould and then placing them accurately where they
need to be.
Over the years, we have designed bespoke tools to meet
all sorts of application reuirements and product types.
We utilise a variety of design and manufacturing
techniques to ensure that the EoAT is fit for purpose and
meets all requirements for the intended application at
the point of installation.
All bespoke EoAT’s are designed in house by our design
team at our UK office.
The fundamental backbone of most EoAT designs
incorporates picking/placing product with either vacuum,
grippers or a combination of both. Within these common
functions lies an array of design nuance and detail that can
be tailored to your application.
Vacuum solutions need to consider stability of the part;
vacuum force and material selection for both the industrial
environment and your product. Gripper solutions need to
consider how they will be controlled (pneumatic/electric);
gripper finger force and how to sense the product has been
positively picked.
All this detail and more will be discussed with our design
team throughout the project to make sure we deliver to your
needs.
Once into the design phase our in house 3D printing
capability allows us to prototype and validate design
concepts prior to manufacture so we know we can deliver
designs ‘right first time’.
