Piab's innovative EOAT for Cobots at Automate 2019
Piab will be exhibiting an innovative selection of tools designed for collaborative robots at this year's Automate show in Chicago, April 8-11. Piab will be in booth N-8360. Piab also has a booth at the Promat show the same week at McCormick Place in the South hall at booth S-2388 showing ergonomic lifting solutions.
Among the EOAT solutions is piCOBOT®, a UR certified vacuum gripper unit designed to act as a flexible co-worker in a variety of production, packaging or assembly lines. It offers the ideal extra "pair of hands".
The Kenos® KCS Gripper is a single end effector developed to handle objects of any material, surface and shape.
