Safe and reliable tool changes also include safe and reliable control and supply of the changed tools. This is why our optional modules are the perfect complement to SCHUNK tool changers. From simple signals to welding currents, a wide range of tools can be supplied. In addition, various modules are available for the implementation of pneumatics, fluids, vacuum and hydraulics.
The ambient temperature describes the temperature of the air or the direct operating environment in which a gripper is operated (and not the workpiece temperature, as this is normally significantly higher than the ambient temperature).We also offer special solutions for ambient temperatures above 130 °C. We would be happy to review your use case based on your specific process data.
