Robotic Tool Changers and Gripper Positioners
In flexible manufacturing environments, robotic systems must handle diverse tasks like picking, placing, fastening, packaging, or assembling. Tool changers and gripper positioners enable this versatility, allowing robots to switch end effectors or adapt gripping configurations with speed and accuracy.
Adapt Quickly. Grip Precisely. Automate Smarter.
Helix Linear Technologies provides compact lead screws and precision linear actuators that deliver reliable motion control for tool changers and end-of-arm tooling (EOAT). Our components support precise gripper alignment, repeatable tool engagement, and programmable motion that helps robots adapt on the fly, minimizing downtime and maximizing cell flexibility.
Whether it's indexing a gripper, adjusting spacing, or executing rapid tool swaps, Helix motion systems help integrators and OEMs unlock more agile, intelligent robotic automation.
Key Benefits:
- Accurate linear motion for gripper spacing and tool alignment
- Compact, lightweight components ideal for robotic end effectors
- High repeatability ensures consistent tool connections and part handling
- Built for fast changeovers and high-cycle automation environments
Helix enables robotic systems to do more with precision motion that makes adaptability part of your standard workflow.
