Morrisville, North Carolina – The new Schunk AGE-Z 2 compensation unit is for palletizing, joining, and workpiece assembly. It enables a Z-axis compensation for different pickup and stacking positions. The compensation unit is guided by ball bearings without play for great moment capacity at minimum size. Compression springs define the rigidity of the unit and can be increased by additional actuation of the pneumatic cylinder.
It has an ISO flange pattern for easy assembly to most types of robots without the need for an adapter plate. The cylinder allows locking of the unit for dynamic movements. Monitoring of the retracted and extended positions is possible with the use of sensors.
It has a compact design for minimum installation height and can be combined with the Schunk AGE-XY.
