Flexible-Leg Positioning Stands

Bend and wrap the legs around almost anything while keeping a level mounting surface. Rubber rings around each section prevent slipping. These stands can also be used like a traditional tripod.

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.

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.

Ball-Grip Positioning Arms

Ball-and-socket connections allow 360° positioning. Choose a complete arm or select a base, connectors, and accessories to build your own.
To ensure compatibility, select components that have the same ball diameter. Use reducing connectors (sold separately) to pair components with a 1 1/2" ball diameter to those with a 1" ball diameter.

Hand-held device grips adjust for a secure hold.
Styles E and F have spring-loaded fingers that you can adjust to fit devices of different sizes. Rubber caps on the fingers create a tight grip on your smartphone or tablet.
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.

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.

Non-Contact Temperature Screeners
Quickly take people’s temperatures as they enter your facility to screen out anyone with a high reading. These screeners have a thermal camera that uses infrared light to measure forehead temperature in two seconds at a distance of one to two feet. They’re accurate within 0.9° F and 0.5° C, and work even if people are wearing masks, hats, and glasses. If their temperature is normal, there’s an audible notification. Connect them to your network using Wi-Fi or their Ethernet port in order to create a library of photos, retain data for reporting, and customize the screeners to display directions and your company name and logo. For basic temperature scanning only, there’s no need to connect them to your network—simply plug their power cord into a wall outlet. If you want to keep people from entering until they pass the temperature check, wire these screeners to doors and gates. CE marked, they meet European safety, health, and environmental protection requirements.
Mount these screeners to a wall, or add a floor stand.
Warning: These screeners are not intended for medical use.
