Destaco has announced the availability of cobot tooling solutions that are designed to simplify tool selection and eliminate integration design work for applications employing small payload robots or cobots in their operations. The variety of tooling solutions is designed for gripping, palletizing, machine tending, tool changing and tool extension applications up to 10-kg payloads.

Destaco’s cobot tooling solution kits feature all of the user-selected accessories, along with the hardware and tools needed for installation, reducing the need to consult an application engineer. All of the tooling solutions are compatible with cobots that have an ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 end-of-arm mounting pattern. Blank robot and tool plates are offered for those users want to use their own mounting patterns.

Destaco’s Microtool End Effectors enable the cobot to perform palletizing functions. Users that know the length, width and weight of the packages to be lifted and transferred can easily select the palletizing kit type and pre-determined vacuum cup size necessary for the application, eliminating tool design work with off-the-shelf kits.

Other cobot tooling solutions that Destaco is now offering include:

  • CB-200 Quick-Move Base: Enables the cobot to be moved from one work station to another without the need to reprogram the robot
  • ARV-C Vacuum Gripper: Can pick up and move product via one air line with an auto-release vacuum generator; available in nine sizes and shapes
  • MG Magnet Gripper: Enables the picking of ferrous material or components with one pneumatically actuated air line; available in two sizes
  • MultiMount Tool Array: Mounts up to five different tools to the cobot wrist via various tool mounting plates and multiple extension lengths
  • MultiMount Machine Tending: Can accommodate two grippers or two tools for use in work-piece exchange applications in CNC machining centers; features blank, ISO-9409-50 and DirectConnect mounting plates
  • MultiMount Tool Extension: Extends the reach of the cobot arm. A variety of tool plates and multiple extension lengths are available
  • MicroTool Palletizing: Off-the-shelf kits to handle boxes from 160 to 750 mm widths and 260 to 900 mm lengths weighing less than 10 kg
