SCHUNK Inc. Product
for control of robots and handling units in the event of a collisionsor overload conditions
In case of a collision, the mounting flange will be deflected. This simultaneously actuates a sensor whose signal triggers the system’s emergency stop mechanism.
After deflection a manual reset of the OPS can be done and the unit can be returned into its original position.
Advantages – Your benefits
- Triggering force and torque can be adjusted via the operating pressure
for optimal protection of your robots and components - Integrated monitoring
for signal transmission without delay in case of collisions so that the robot can be stopped immediately - ISO adapter plates as an option
for easy assembly to most of robot types without any manufacturing costs/work
Options and special information
- Anti-rotation protection
The VS variant limits the rotational deflection to ± 45°. - Food-grade lubrication
The product contains food-compliant lubricants as standard. The requirements of EN 1672-2:2020 are not fully met. The relevant NSF certificates are available at https://info.nsf.org/USDA/Listings.asp using the lubricant information in the operating manual.
