Lifter kits include a vacuum generator, cables, and cups. Check the status of your lifter and adjust the vacuum levels right on the lifter. The integrated vacuum sensor sends information about an item's position to your controller, as well as triggers LED status indicators that show whether the arm is picking it up or releasing it. These lifters have near-field communication (NFC), so you can use a smartphone to read data, instructions, and error messages when you’re near the arm. Lifters don’t have pinch points or sharp edges, so you can use them on robots that will be near people. They help you meet ISO/TS 15066 international safety standards. Rated IP40, they're protected from wires and other objects 1 mm or larger. They're configured to work with specific robot arms, so choose the kit that matches your arm's manufacturer and model. Lifters for FANUC CRX arms are FANUC approved, and lifters for Universal Robots (UR) arms are UR+ certified, so they've been tested to work seamlessly. Install the included software directly into your controller to program the lifter.

Miniature vacuum lifter kits are smaller and lighter than standard kits, so they won't weigh down your robot arm. However, the small size means they create less suction, so they're limited to smaller, lighter items than the standard kits. They use discrete I/O to communicate directly with your controller. Note: the additional parts listed here are not compatible with these kits.
