Heavy Duty Ball-Grip Positioning Arms
With strength for higher load capacities than other ball-grip positioning arms, these arms have a heavy duty construction. Ball-and-socket connections allow 360° positioning. The base, connectors, and links are hollow for routing wires, cables, and small hoses. Select a base, connectors, link, and plate or mount to build a complete arm.
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
Mounting plates require a base and a straight or tee connector to attach to a link. Machine vision camera mounting plates come with mounting hole patterns for specific brand cameras.

Bend-and-Stay Positioning Arms
Stronger and with greater load capacities than gooseneck-style positioning arms, these arms keep their shape even when moving or when exposed to vibration. They’re often used in robotics and conveyor applications when frequent repositioning isn’t required.
All accessories include the necessary hardware for attaching them to arms.
Ball-and-socket adapters and ball-and-socket connectors allow 360° rotation and up to 90° tilt. A locking knob keeps them in place.

Web Cameras
Record and stream high-definition video and sound from your computer. These cameras capture detailed images and smooth motion, thanks to their resolution. To prevent blurriness, they automatically focus on your face and adjust as you move. They also correct poor lighting, so you get clear images even in dim settings. Dual microphones pick up voices from multiple angles while reducing background sound, making them good for meeting rooms.
To mount, clamp these cameras on top of your flat-screen monitor or laptop.

Mounts for Robot Machine Vision Cameras
Use these mounts to attach a machine vision camera to the end of your robot arm. They have a standard ISO 50 mounting pattern and can be used with or without a tool. Use adapters (not included) to pair with tools that have different mounting patterns.
Plastic mounts fully enclose your camera and its cord to prevent it from getting damaged or knocked out of position. Once installed, the mounts’ front cover is removable, providing easy access for adjustments and maintenance.
