Robot crash protection device ATI Industrial Automation
The Protector is ATI Industrial Automation’s patented collision sensor designed to prevent costly damage to robotic end-effectors resulting from robot crashes. The Protector’s features include: automatic reset, high repeatability, large moment rotation, rugged design and low cost.
The automatic reset feature particularly benefits workplace safety. After the robot crashes, the Protector will automatically reset when the robot removes the tooling from the crash-causing object and when torsional rotation does not exceed 20-25 degrees.
Compliant in the X, Y and Z axes, this capability provides a safer method for resetting by making it unnecessary for personnel to enter the robotic work cell.
