Compensator Remote Center Compliance (RCC)
The Compensator Remote Center Compliance (RCC) device allows an assembly machine to compensate for positioning errors due to machine inaccuracy, vibration or tolerance, thereby lowering contact forces and avoiding part and tool damage.
When the remote compliance center is near the contact point, the part will align with the hole automatically; correcting lateral and rotational misalignment. The Compensator is a mechanical device that uses high-quality elastomer shear pads to control the compliance.

PHD Grippers
A wide variety of PHD pneumatic grippers are available for internal and external gripping uses and have various jaw styles to adapt to any application. They range from high-precision miniature sizes to heavy-duty models capable of more than 1600 pounds of grip force. PHD offers angular grippers that open at an angle and parallel grippers that open directly apart. Pneumatic and electric grippers with a wide assortment of options and accessories. The wide variety of options provides flexibility to utilize the best end effector for pick and place, industrial assembly, and end of arm tooling for robotic automation systems.
Vacuum Gripper System − VGS™
Piab’s decentralised Vacuum Gripper system (VGS™) is a product solution integrating high quality DURAFLEX® suction cups with COAX® cartridges. The VGS™ makes selection, sizing and installation of a vacuum system much easier. Design and dimensioning mistakes for the vacuum system will be avoided.
With a decentralized solution like VGS™, you will enjoy the benefits of a more efficient and reliable vacuum system. Increased machine speeds can be achieved thanks to faster response times with the vacuum source right at the cup and better initial vacuum flow which will grip the object faster. The decentralized approach gives safety with one vacuum source per suction point and it also eliminates flow losses in long vacuum hoses, making maximum use of energy.
VGS™3040 with integrated energy saving functions like Vacustat and piSAVE release is a pioneering product and the world's most energy efficient concept for vacuum handling of sealed parts, such as glass and metal sheets.

Multi-Axis Force / Torque Sensors
The ATI Multi-Axis Force/Torque Sensor system measures all six components of force and torque. The system consists of a transducer, shielded high-flex cable, and intelligent data acquisition system, Ethernet/DeviceNet interface or F/T controller. Force/Torque sensors are used throughout industry for product testing, robotic assembly, grinding and polishing. In research, our sensors are used in robotic surgery, haptics, rehabilitation, neurology and many others applications. Contact ATI for more information.
What is a Six-Axis Force/Torque Transducer?
A device that measures the outputting forces and torques from all three Cartesian coordinates (x, y, and z). A six-axis force/torque transducer is also known as a multi-axis force/torque transducer, multi-axis load cell, F/T sensor, or six-axis load cell.

Tool Changers
Product Advantages
- Modular: Power, coolant, servo, DeviceNet, and signal features are built into separate modules making maintenance easy - increasing commonality.
- Extremely High Moment Capacity.
- No exposed hoses or cables for DeviceNet: The DeviceNet module with lock/unlock valve is internally plumbed and interfaces with internal cable routing in the Tool Changer body - making it easy to add and remove the DeviceNet module.
- Increased Strength: The QC-200 locking mechanism exceeds 200kg robot load specifications.
- Easy Dress: The modules are designed to place electrical, pneumatic, and water ports in-line.
- Weight and Size Reduction: Weight and size are kept as small as possible without reducing reliability or performance.

Automatic / Robotic Tool Changers
Strongest, most reliable, with unmatched repeatability.
The ATI Robotic Tool Changer provides the flexibility to automatically change end-effectors or other peripheral tooling. These tool changers are designed to function reliably for millions of cycles at rated load while maintaining extremely high repeatability. For this reason, the ATI Tool Changer has become the number-one tool changer of choice around the world.
ATI Tool Changer models cover a wide range of applications, from very small payloads to heavy payload applications requiring significantly large moment capacity.
What is a Robotic Tool Changer (QC)?
An end-effector with two mating parts, a Master-side and a Tool-side that have been designed to lock or couple together automatically, carry a payload, and have the ability to pass utilities such as electrical signals, pneumatic, water, etc. Most robot couplers use pneumatics to lock the Master- and Tool-sides together. The Robot Tool Changer provides the flexibility for any automated process to change tools and pass various utilities. The Master-side of the Tool Changer mounts to a robot, CNC machine, or other structure. The Tool-side of the Tool Changer mounts to tooling, such as grippers, welders, or deburring tools. A Robot Tool Changer is also known as a Quick-Change device (QC), an automatic tool changer (ATC), robot tool changer, robot coupler, robotic coupler, or robotic connector.
