Per movimenti liberi e flessibili o processi definiti, con la struttura modulare, il robot pneumatico leggero può essere utilizzato per numerose applicazioni. In combinazione con varie pinze adattive, può raccogliere e gestire un’ampia varietà di oggetti e forme. Allo stesso tempo, è fondamentalmente flessibile e non rappresenta un rischio per l’operatore anche in caso di collisione.
The BionicSoftArm owes its flexibility to its modular design, which can be combined from several pneumatic bellows segments and rotary drives. Depending on the requirements, the length of the BionicSoftArm can be varied with up to seven pneumatic actuators, thus providing maximum flexibility in terms of range and mobility. This makes it very easy to implement applications that are difficult to realise with a standard robot.
The BionicSoftArm can work around obstacles even in the tightest of spaces. It can be used in direct human–robot collaboration as well as in classic SCARA applications – for example, pick & place tasks. The elimination of complex safety devices such as cages and light barriers shortens conversion times and thus enables flexible use at different locations – which is ideal for adaptive and economical production.
