Rochu Catalog V2.5
Suzhou Rochu Robotics Co., LTD., located in Suzhou, China, specializes in soft robotic technology, providing soft gripper solutions for industrial automation. Their products, including Soft Grippers and Control Units, are utilized across various industries such as electronics, food packaging, automotive, garment manufacturing, medical instruments, and logistics. The company operates a CNAS and ISO17025 certified laboratory and a modern factory with ISO9001 certification. Their products are certified with FDA, EU 1935/2004/EC food-safe, CE, and RoHS, and they hold numerous patents.
The Rochu pneumatic gripper is crafted from soft materials, enabling it to handle delicate objects without causing damage. It quickly adapts to different shapes and sizes, operates with high precision, and is resistant to chemicals and temperature variations. The gripper's modular design allows for easy construction and adaptation for various applications, including mobile and desktop robots.
- Food: Suitable for handling fruits, dough, candies, pastries, and vegetables.
- Automobile: Ideal for sorting and handling parts like headlights and seat components.
- Fabric: Capable of picking soft, breathable fabric layers.
- 3C-electronics: Used for assembling and testing small electronic parts.
- Medical Supplies: Handles items like glass tubes and masks.
The grippers function using pneumatic pressure, with adjustable air pressure controlling the grabbing force and opening space. Safe working pressure ranges are specified to prevent damage.
The materials used in the grippers exhibit excellent resistance to weather, UV, ozone, and various chemicals. They are also resistant to steam and abrasion, with specific materials offering high-temperature resistance.
Rochu offers standard and non-standard gripper combinations, customizable based on the application. These combinations include various modules like Finger Modules, Slide Mounting Plates, and Flange Connection Modules, allowing flexibility in handling different objects.
Rochu Robotics provides versatile and safe soft gripper solutions suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, supported by robust certifications and a commitment to innovation.
The document details specifications and guidelines for Rochu's finger modules and associated components, including assembly modules, connection modules, and control units. It outlines the various sizes, materials, and configurations available, as well as operational parameters and best practices for use.
The finger modules are available in three major models (A, B, C) with sizes ranging from A3 to A8, B3 to B8, and C3 to C8. Each model has specific dimensions and weight, with the finger material affecting the maximum and minimum height under different pressures. Normal material is used for standard applications, while strong and anti-static materials are available for higher pressure and electronic applications, respectively.
The gripping force (FG) is influenced by factors such as working pressure (P), finger distance (Dn), and finger size. Higher pressure and larger finger size increase the gripping force. The document provides examples and diagrams to illustrate how these factors affect the gripping force.
The finger modules are designed for versatility, with options for different contact types (line, point, flat) to suit various object surfaces. The document emphasizes the importance of using Rochu's control unit to maintain safe working pressures and extend the life of the finger modules.
The document describes various connection modules, including slide mounting plates (SMP), flange connection modules (FCM), and quick changer modules (QCM). Each module has specific features and dimensions, designed to integrate with Rochu's finger modules and other robotic components.
Rochu offers several control units (CU) for different operational modes, including basic, standard, and mobile modes. These units provide pressure and vacuum control for the finger modules, with options for manual or automatic operation. The document details the specifications and features of each control unit, including pressure ranges and communication capabilities.
The document advises users to adhere to specified pressure ranges to avoid damage to the finger modules. It also recommends using Rochu's control units for optimal performance and longevity. For customized solutions, users are encouraged to contact Rochu's customer service.
The document outlines the protection level of various control units, with IP53 being a common standard. The working mode involves continuous driving of the gripper upon signal reception, with a lifetime of 20 million operations. Control and feedback modes include I/O signals, Modbus TCP/RTU-485, and remote control at 315MHz. Positive pressure flow and vacuum flow rates vary across models, with the PCU-HMN offering higher rates.
Several models of control units are described, including PCU-SMN, PCU-HMN, iPCU-SMN, iPCU-HMN, iPCU-CMN, iPCU-LMN, and ACU-MMN. Each model has specific features such as air supply requirements, rated voltage, power, and protection levels. The iPCU-HMN is noted for its larger airflow and faster speed compared to the standard iPCU-SMN.
Control units are driven by compressed air and controlled by 24VDC. They are designed for easy integration into control cabinets or robot shoulders. The document specifies parameters like rated voltage, power, input air source, output pressure, and net weight. The iPCU-CMN is highlighted as an economical solution, while the iPCU-LMN is the smallest and lightest model.
Control units are categorized by their functional characteristics, such as standard, compact, high-speed, light, and mobile models. The document provides a detailed table of models with their respective pressure flow rates and vacuum flow rates.
The document includes details on connection parts like connectors, profiles, T-nuts, and brackets. These components are used to fix control units and other modules onto various structures. Specific dimensions and types are provided for each component.
The document references video resources for further understanding of the control units and their applications. It also mentions partners and additional products related to the control units.
