Connection to FANUC CRX series

Connecting a manual gripper to the FANUC CRX series robot can be accomplished through a manual interface. The manual interface is a hardware kit that includes a mounting plate and electrical connections for the SR series gripper system.

How to connect to FANUC CRX series

Step 1:

Fix the adopter plate between CRX robot and SR-series.

Step 2:

Fix the robot side of SR-series to adopter plate.

Step 3:

Dock SR-series tool-side to robot-side by using the locking bar, it’s simply to rotate some angle (with SAFE-LOCK type, to lock/unlock like below by two actions).

Once installed, the gripper system is fully integrated with the FANUC CRX robot, allowing for seamless operation and precise control of the end-of-arm tooling.

General information

The SR Series quick-change system is a manual round system available in three sizes to meet different load requirements, including 20, 40 and 100 kg. Featuring an opto-mechanical locking mechanism, this new model offers improved process safety and clear indications of correct gripper replacement. To further enhance functionality, the extended version - the SR-MV model - is equipped with a highly effective micro-valve system that effectively blocks the air supply after disconnection. The Quick Change SR system can also transmit up to 13 sensor signals simultaneously, making it extremely versatile and ideal for a wide range of manufacturing applications.
