BEC – Servo drive CMMT-ST

Practical: the drive amplifiers, in this case the servo drives CMMT-ST, are mounted on the robot itself, rather than on the gripper system. This frees up space on the gripper and makes it less complicated.

BEC – Supports with electric cylinders

Flexible, robust and precise: the supports with electric cylinders from Festo need to be powerful enough to be able to hold the coils weighing up to 1.5 tonnes, but at the same time not so powerful that they damage them.

BEC – High-tech gripper system

High-tech gripper system on the articulated arm robot. It is vital that the coils do not twist or slip when the gripper picks them up and inserts them into the magnets; the tolerance for inserting the coils into the magnets is no more than 0.5...
