Reduce engineering time for custom tooling design and programming Reuse the same hardware from one project to the next Adapt on the fly when production changes ADAPTIVE ROBOT GRIPPERS IT S EASIER THAN YOU THINK NO CODING REQUIRED With their intuitive ready-made programming and Today s robotized cells no longer require extensive integration software kits, the installation process has custom coding of the robot s tasks or processes. Using been greatly simplified. the provided graphical user interface software, you ll be MURRPLASTIK able to configure your Gripper s start and stop points, movements, operations, speed and applied force. 2-FINGER GRIPPERS The Robotiq 2-finger adaptive grippers enable you to use the same gripper for all your parts. The grippers are perfect for low volume or high changeover applications. Having the same gripper on all your robotized cells makes installation, programming and maintenance faster. The embedded URCap software also allows using several Grippers on the same UR arm. VISION SYSTEMS IT S FASTER THAN YOU THINK Specially developed cable protection conduits for complex robot applications that can stand up to extreme stress and movement. They have specially modified materials and special conduit geometry that ensures optimal protection and long lives. FORCE TORQUE SENSORS Robotics has grown beyond experimentation and research. For simple manufacturing tasks, most collaborative robot cells will be operational in under a day. Robotiq s Grippers and Sensors are designed for CAMERA standardization on a factory floor. When you use the Robotiq Camera provides your robot a Plug + Play vision system. It is specifically designed for Universal Robots. It fits on all UR wrists and the software is embedded on UR s user interface. The Robotiq Camera is set up without any external PC. same end effector for all your robotized cells; setting up a new one is a breeze. j h f o s t e r. c o m FT 300 & FT 150 Robotiq s Force Torque Sensors give your robot the sense of touch. By installing a Force Torque Sensor on your robot, you ll be able to reliably perform the following tasks: precision part insertion, assembly and fabrication, and product testing. j h f o s t e r. c o m

IAI America, Inc Meet the Cost-Effective SCARA Robot Pulse Motor Type IXP John Henry Foster has been a distributor for IAI America since 2008 - a world leader in linear actuators, SCARA robots and plug and play automation. The IXP achieves a payload equivalent to that of a conventional model by adapting high-output drivers. All IXP models come standard with absolute encoders that do not require batteries. Since battery replacement is no longer necessary, maintenance man-hours are reduced. MORE AFFORDABLE By adopting pulse motors the IXP costs around 1/2 a conventional model. GREATER STORAGE AND SAFETY COMPLIANT Accommodating significantly more programs and position with the greater storage capacity. By building an appropriate external circuit, the MSEL meets the safety circuit requirements of any Safety Categories 1 to 3. SMALLER SIZE Having a size of 130mm in width x 195mm in height, the MSEL is significantly smaller than a conventional controller and saves space in your control panel. The MSEL can be installed with screws or using a DIN rail. SUPPORTING DIVERSE I/O INTERFACES Standard PIOs and one expansion I/O slot are available. For the expansion I/O slot, PIOs or field network can be selected.
