IO-Link technology connection solution for industrial robots

If you are looking for a connection solution for multi-joint industrial robots, this article will provide you with a complete solution, bringing convenience and efficiency to everyone. Industrial robots and automated assembly systems are an integral part of modern industrial production. In an industrial automation environment, robots can achieve efficient operations and ensure stable high quality at every step. Robots are widely used in applications such as flexible welding, spraying, assembly, packaging and transportation. However, there have always been some difficulties in the connection scheme of robots. Traditional robot gripper and fixture signal integration methods usually add many signal connection cables, which is not conducive to later maintenance and replacement. In flexible multi-robot integration applications, it is often necessary to replace the end clamp. If fixtures cannot be changed quickly, efficient operations will be affected. In addition, how to reduce the load-bearing load of robots is a key topic in the integration of many assembly systems.

Reduce the weight of the robot

Load-bearing of the robot body: We can set up a fixed frame at the elbow joint of the robot. This can achieve a transitional connection between the gripper, clamp-side signals and the controller-side. This approach can not only effectively reduce the space required to install the robot, but also reduce the need for torsion-resistant cables in the pipeline package. Therefore, the number of cables can be reduced and installation is made simpler.

Simplify wiring for robot end signals

Signal integration at the gripper and fixture end: In terms of the connection method for the signal integration at the robot base end into the control cabinet, we use compactly designed assemblies such as M12, 7/8” flange seats, heavy-duty connectors, and wiring boards. This can adapt to power, data and signal transmission, and can also cope with harsh environmental conditions. At the control cabinet side, we usually use front panel connection cables, which allows for quick connection and facilitates isolation and maintenance.
