GRIPPING SYSTEMS
ATIS supply industrial manipulators with specific gripping solutions, developed in-house, for handling all types of products with maximum attentions to adapting to customers' needs (working area, product technical specification, cycle time, safety and so forth). The main concept of the gripping systems is to be able to substitute them with operators' hands, hence becoming a simple unique one entity.
Thanks to the experience cultivated within the industry, latest 3D engineering design package and consideration of specific handling requirements, our engineering design department will literarily develop bespoke gripping method around the product to handle.
Endless gripping tools could be integrated to our pneumatic manipulators as much as there are countless products and several sectors that could make use of handling solutions. However, for our customers’ conveniences various applications and / or solutions are grouped to cover vast industries.
HOOK TOOLING
The hook gripping system can simply be our standard hook, and it is often, but not only, fitted on our ATISacer balanced rope manipulators.
The shaped hook tool is a simple and essential gripping system that adapts well when handling various types of products, from cans or drums of paint to packs of cardboard and much more.
Our technical department will develop the required shape of the gripper to handle the product in complete safety and with maximum ease.
The integration of the pneumatic hook balancer in the production cycle will be fast, and the ATIS manipulator will become an irreplaceable ally for the operator in carrying out his job
SUCTION TOOLING
The suction tooling adopted and integrated into ATIS pneumatic manipulators has multiple applications in different sectors of various industries.
These pneumatic toolings are capable of lifting and moving many and diversified products such as sheet metal, boxes, glass sheets, bottles and more. Suction tooling could be designed in many ways. It can be tooling with a single suction cup or multiple suction cups because the choice is dictated by the size, weight and shape of the product to handle.
The suction tooling frames are designed considering the customer's request. The suction retainers on the frame can be fixed or adjustable to cover various shapes and dimensions of the product to handle. Certain feature such as inclination and rotation, for flipping product upside down, can be integrated into the tooling. The rotation and inclination capability could be either manual or pneumatic, while a continuous 360º rotation is also attainable with our suction tooling.
All gripping tools integrated to our pneumatic manipulators are thoroughly analysed, designed and equipped with the best safety systems available on today's market.
MAGNET TOOLING
The magnets, either manual or pneumatic, also known as integrated magnets, can be integrated into all ATIS pneumatic manipulators:
ATISmirus series, the articulated rigid arms manipulators with parallelograms.
ATISacer series, the articulated rigid arms manipulators with double wire cables.
ATISlinear series, the vertical sliding manipulators and compact.
ATISferax series, the lever actionable pneumatic manipulators.
The magnet tooling can as well be integrated into numerous other solutions available at ATIS.
Once the choice of tooling fell on using a magnet as the best solution for handling customer's product, it will be our engineering design department that will evaluate and design suitable magnet tooling to be integrated to the manipulator.
More than one magnet can be used for an application, for example, a long steel pipe or large steel coil will need more than one magnet to lift it at the same time.
The magnets and the pneumatics, inclusive of the necessary push-button control, will all be integrated into the tooling
