Example applications in the field of robotics

Robot column for mobile cobot use

  • Fast, manoeuvrable and always where it’s needed – with this stable frame, you can use even large cobots in different places. The central column offers a base area of 200x200 mm for attaching a cobot using item Robot Mounting Plate 8. Once the mobile cobot is where it needs to be, Jacking Castors make sure it stays securely in place. The integrated height adjustment levels out uneven floors.

Using the building kit system principle from item, you can build exactly the cobot base structure you need. Extendible robot tables for human-robot collaboration can be created to fit seamlessly with the item Work Bench System. Cobot columns can be fitted with floor fixings or mounted on castors so they can be stowed away neatly. Robot cells or robot bases with integrated cable conduits and base cabinets offer a practical way to house robot control systems and accessories.

Robot guard - Stability and safety in line with the Machinery Directive

On some robot applications, the robot’s working area needs to be separated off from areas where people are working, for instance by installing a guard. Various solutions are available from item to suit different requirements and applications. For example, guards incorporating corrugated mesh are ideal for large-scale safety fixtures with openings so materials can be passed through. Alternatively, robot cells using clear, impact-proof polycarbonate panels are perfect when processes need to be monitored closely.

Enclosed robot cells and machine cabins - Integrated cable guidance and precise door seals

If an autonomous robotics application generates noise and debris, then a sealed robot cell or machine cabin is the answer. When working with item components, robot cabins can be built as either partially or fully enclosed designs. In these cases, Line XMS from item offers an ideal solution. Cables and wires running to and from the cabin can be integrated with ease thanks to the removable cover profiles used in this product line. Its series-standard sealing system also makes sure noise and dust can’t get in or out.
