Microcontroller workpiece caps can be mounted on the MPS workpiece bases with the
Joining station. You can use a mounting kit (order no. 8064882) for this, in order to
switch over from a suction cup to a parallel gripper with gripper jaws.
The Joining station consists of a Separating station expanded to
include a Pick&Place module, bus node, RFID module, and an
additional RFID write/read head.
The Pick&Place module is equipped with a suction cup for
joining the workpiece caps and the MPS workpiece bases.
The station can remove workpiece bases from, or place them
into, the flow of materials. The workpiece base is held in the
joining position at the deflector.
The scope of delivery includes the parallel gripper conversion
kit, which is required if EasyKit workpieces need to be joined.
