What is the difference between new and old CB-Series coupling?

We have 2 types of gripper coupling in the field: Old design: AGC-CPL-062-002 and New design: GRP-CPL-062

What are the differences?

Different thickness (+3 mm for GRP-CPL-XXX, you might need to change your TCP if coming from an older coupling) due to an overmoulded PCB and a strain reliever on the cable for the newer coupling.

Old design: AGC-CPL-XXX-002

  • Cable (CBL-COM-2066-01) and contacts are less robust than the new design
  • It has -3mm of thickness compare to the new coupling design
  • Require Low profile socket head cap screws (if regular socket head cap screws are used, permanent damage to the gripper's PCB will occur)

 

New design: GRP-CPL-XXX

  • Cable (CBL-COM-2070-01) and contact are more robust than the old design
  • This coupling is currently shipped with our grippers for UR
  • It has +3mm of thickness compared to the old coupling design
  • The electronics are over-molded and a seal is surrounding connection pins.
  • Allow regular socket head cap screws.
