End of Arm Tooling
The ever-rising demand for robotics in the manufacturing industry has led to a dramatic increase in the numbers, styles, and complexity of end of arm tools (EOAT). ADG has developed EOATs for material handling between cells and stations, machine (un)loading, screw installation, assembly, adhesive/sealant applications, cutting and deburring applications, and many more.
The main criteria incorporated into each EOAT design are:
- Robot payload
- Speed / cycle time
- Robot reach studies
- EOAT access and crash detection
- Serviceability
- Cable/hose management
- Cost optimization
