AirPick - Instruction Manual
3.5. Electrical Setup
Power and communication are established with the Gripper via a single device cable. The device cable provides a 24 V power
supply and enables serial RS-485 communication to the robot controller.
Info
RS-485 signals (485+, 485- and 485 GND) are isolated from the main 24 V power supply. GND can be connected to any
other ground reference as long as the voltage potential between the grounds does not exceed 250 V. Grounding
reference is at the user’s discretion.
3.5.1. Electrostatic Discharge Safety
3.5.2. Pinout interface
The Gripper interfaces with its coupling via a 10-spring pin connector located on its outer surface.
Fig. 3-8: Pinout of the AirPick cable-to-wrist coupling.
Info
The coupling used in the figure above is used for reference only and corresponds to bolt pattern ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6.
3.5.3. Coupling to controller
An optional Robotiq Universal Controller may be used between the Gripper and the network/robot controller if fieldbus
communication is required.
If a Robotiq Universal Controller is used, please refer to the instruction manual of the Robotiq Universal Controller. The figure
below represents the wiring scheme of the Vacuum Gripper with device cable, power supply, fuse (refer to the Required Tools and
Equipment section) and grounding.
