Equip your robot arm with two tools at once—these mounts have two offset, angled mounting surfaces for tools. They’re often used to speed up a robot’s work cycle, such as when two grippers swap workpieces in and out of a CNC machine. Or, use them to mount tools with different functions, such as a pick-and-place gripper that puts a workpiece into a vice and a sander that finishes the workpiece. They’re compatible with the most common robot arms, including some models from Universal Robots (UR) and FANUC.

These mounts are made of aluminum, so they’re corrosion resistant, lightweight, and machinable. The lightness helps you keep robot arms under their payload, or weight limit, and the machinability means you can drill your own holes.

For a complete system, you'll need an end-of-robot-arm mount and two tool-side mounts. These mounts include fasteners to attach mounts to your arm, and fasteners to attach tool-side mounts, but not fasteners for attaching your tools.

Bolt-on mounts have a standard ISO mounting pattern—choose one that matches the mounting pattern of your robot arm and tools. If you don't see your robot model number listed, measure the bolt circle diameter to determine mounting compatibility.

To extend your robot arm’s reach, use robot tool extensions.

Connect robot tools to robot arms that have different ISO mounting patterns. Compatible with some models of Universal Robots (UR) and FANUC robots, these mounts are commonly used to equip robot arms with pick-and-place grippers, vacuum grippers, and sanders. They use ISO mounting patterns, an industry standard for arm connections. Mounts come with all the hardware you need to connect them to robot arms, but not all the hardware required to connect robot tools to mounts. If you don't see your robot model number listed, measure the bolt circle diameter to determine mounting compatibility.

Bolt-on mounts have ISO mounting patterns on the tool side.

Blank mounts don’t have drilled holes on the tool side. Machine your own holes for compatibility with unusual mounting patterns.

Threaded mounts have a universal female-threaded connection on the tool side for attaching threaded tools, pipe, rods, and other components to robot arms. If you need a male-threaded connection, choose one with an included universal thread adapter. For other thread types and sizes, add a universal thread adapter.

Aluminum mounts are a lightweight metal alternative to stainless steel, helping your robot arm stay under its payload limit, or the total capacity a robot can lift. They’re also more machinable than stainless steel, so you can drill your own holes for robots with unusual mounting patterns. These mounts resist corrosion.

304 stainless steel mounts are often used in washdown environments, such as food-processing plants, since they won't corrode from frequent washdowns. They’re stronger than aluminum and acetal plastic mounts, but also heavier and less machinable.

Acetal plastic mounts are lightweight and strong. Often used in food-processing plants, they won’t corrode from frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners.

Connect your robot arm to tools or extensions made from T-slotted framing. These mounts are often used to support custom tools for uniquely shaped items, such as a rig to lift chairs off of a line, or as a mounting base for a screwdriver. They use ISO mounting patterns, an industry standard for arm connections. These mounts are made of aluminum, so they’re corrosion resistant, lightweight, and machinable. The lightness helps you keep robot arms under their payload, or weight limit, and the machinability means you can drill your own holes. Mounts come with all the hardware needed to connect them to robot arms, but not the bolts required to connect T-slotted framing to the mounts. If you don't see your robot model number listed, measure the bolt circle diameter to determine mounting compatibility.

Round mounts are compatible with several ISO mounting patterns, so they connect to a wide variety of robot arms. They’re also lighter and smaller than other mounts, so they fit in tight spaces. However, with only two mounting holes for T-slotted framing, they have fewer attachment options than other mounts.

No need to manually latch and unlatch end-of-arm tools, these tool changers will quickly and seamlessly swap them out for you. While manual tool changers are good for switching tools in between two different work cycles, these automatic tool changers are best for making multiple changes in a single work cycle.

A complete assembly consists of an end-of-robot-arm mount and a robot-tool mount (each sold separately) that lock together with air-powered latching cams. While you’ll only need one end-of-robot-arm mount for your robot arm, make sure you have a robot-tool mount for each of your tools. All of these mounts have standard ISO mounting hole patterns, so they’re compatible with the mounting hole patterns on most robot arms and tools. If you don't see your robot model number listed, measure the bolt circle diameter to determine mounting compatibility.

All of these mounts have air connections, so you can use compressed air to operate air-powered tools, such as grippers. They also have connections for adding electrical pass-through modules (sold separately) to power electrically controlled tools.

To create a tool docking system, use tool storage plates with tool storage bases and tool presence detectors, so tool changers can pick tools up or drop them off as they are needed.

Extend the reach of your robot arm, so it can access the full width of a conveyor or the bottom of deep containers. These extensions use standard ISO mounting patterns, so they’re compatible with most robot arms and tools, such as those made by Universal Robots (UR) and FANUC. Select an extension with an ISO mounting pattern that matches your arm and tool, or use a robot tool mount (sold separately) to adapt to a different pattern. They include mounting hardware to connect them to your robot arm, but don’t have hardware to connect to tools. If you don't see your robot model number listed, measure the bolt circle diameter to determine mounting compatibility.

These extensions are lightweight, corrosion resistant, and strong. They’re also machinable, so you can modify them to mount to custom patterns. Acetal is lighter and less rigid than aluminum, so it’s used for shorter extensions. Aluminum is heavier and more rigid than acetal. It’s used for longer extensions, since it’s stiff enough to keep your tool from wobbling as the arm moves.
