The Lateral Compliance Device provides compensation for misalignment in X-Y axis with no rotation or Z axis compliance. Almost "free floating" due to very low friction forces of the roller bearings supports. Usually used with "Z-Axis" compliance or Remote Center Compliance, to facilitate insertion at assembly, palletizing, or machine load-unload. If shocks are to be expected, the use of an ULS Robot Overload Limiter is advised. The locking cylinder centers the tool plate and secures the unit during Robot rapid movement.
Features:
- Specifically designed for wide compensation movements
- Tolerance compensation with position offset in x-y direction up to + / - 25 mm
- Compensation takes place without force
- Prevents wedging and jamming when inserting and removing workpieces
- Protects robots and automatic assembly machines against wear
- Combinable with Z-axis compliance device
- Individual adaptation to customer specific problems is possible
