piCOBOT This new gripper unit is Piab’s first to be certified by Universal Robots. Mounted on a cobot, it can safely share space with human workers and is able to grip a wide variety of items weighing up to 15.5 pounds. It can pick one or two items at a time, including objects with different shapes.
What’s new? The vacuum gripper, which was introduced at Pack Expo in October.
Benefits Energy-efficiency. With better vacuum flow than competitors’ products and monitoring of vacuum demand, piCOBOT operates more quickly while using less energy and compressed air. Its intelligent blow-off feature allows it to optimize air usage. Its plug-and-play software saves users hours of programming time.
