End-of-Arm Robotic Tooling
- DE-STA-CO End-of-Arm
Robotic Tooling (also known as End Effectors) is designed to maximize
productivity, both before and after installation.
- Permanently mount your tooling to the robot or choose from manual or automatic tool changers.
- Ready-to-assemble mounts and off-the-shelf structural members eliminate the need for custom fabrication.
- All tooling components are constructed of light-weight aluminum and can be reused for future applications, greatly reducing life-cycle cost.
- Unlimited configuration possibilities with vacuum cups, grippers, magnets, clamps, etc.
- System flexibility allows modifications to the end effector in minutes, greatly reducing start up time to launch.
Vacuum
- DE-STA-CO's family of vacuum end effectors, or vacuum end-of-arm robotic tooling equipment, serve a wide range of applications. Whether it be decentralized single-line venturi vacuum generators (with auto blow-off), level compensators, vacuum cups of various size/shape/temperature ranges or a fully-integrated air-saving centralized ‘smart’ vacuum generator, DE-STA-CO has the vacuum solution for your company!
EcoCup
- Great for pick-and-place applications of flat, rigid, non-porous parts including: plastic, glass, solar panels, and electronics, as well as other consumer goods with smooth, flat surfaces.
EcoSmart Intelligent Vacuum Products
- The DE-STA-CO Centuri Centralized Vacuum Generator is a robust, powerful vacuum generator with integrated IO-Link technology. It's increased vacuum level combined with an integrated blow-off system allows for even faster handling cycle times for increased material throughput.
Tool Changers
- DE-STA-CO’s Automatic and Manual Tool Changers are perfect for flexible/multiple robotic tooling applications which use only one robot. These products were designed with exceptional repeatability, high rigidity and load capacity to make them ideal for any robotic application. End effector tooling and modular fixturing can be changed quickly and easily to accommodate many different styles of parts on the same assembly machine or machining center.
Tool Changers
- DE-STA-CO’s manual quick disconnect tool changers allow
you to quickly change/swap out end effectors in seconds.
- Optional integrated air ports and electrical connectors provide immediate power to your system, eliminates manual re-connection of air lines and reduces machine downtime.
- Highly engineered locking mechanisms prevent the tool changers from separating when air/electric signals are lost or from shock/vibration.
- Three different sizes allow you to pick the quick disconnect to best suit your needs.
Round Tooling End Effectors
- DE-STA-CO’s Round Tooling end effectors are the most
widely used, economical and user-friendly modular tooling system for high
volume, low cost, light to medium weight applications. Round tooling is
ideal for pick-and-place part handling, manual manipulating, packaging, and
palletizing. Features include:
Steel and aluminum structural members, infinitely-adjustable clamps/transition brackets and accessory mounts.
Off-the-shelf standard components allow the user to quickly and easily construct an End Effector that is custom to the application.
After years of rugged use, round tooling components can be quickly disassembled and reused for the next application, substantially reducing life cycle cost. Round Tooling End Effectors
- World Tool Booms
Capitalizing on the benefits of Round Tooling and Manual Tool Changers, the DE-STA-CO World Tool Main Booms (aluminum or carbon fiber) have up to 6x medium-sized tool changers to allow the end user to change ONLY the branch tools, reducing changeover time, mass of the tools being changed and reducing cost over the life of the tool.
BodyBuilder End Effectors; Modular End Effector System
- The BodyBuilder Modular End Effector System was designed for final assembly and material handling applications where a robust, yet easy-to-use system was needed. The patented 'crash recovery' method allows the end user to quickly rebuild their structure, reducing downtime in the event of an automation collision. DE-STA-CO's comprehensive family of automation adapters, structural and transition members allow the user to fully customize their design from off-the-shelf components.
BodyBuilder
- Octagonal Aluminum Booms
The octagonal structure is available in four sizes: 30mm, 45mm, 60mm, and 90mm. Cross-webbed structure maximizes on strength to reduce overall weight, deflection and twist. Integrated T-slots allow accessories to be mounted, moved and repositioned quickly and easily.
SpiderGrip End Effectors
- SpiderGrip™ end effectors are designed to aid in the
geometric assembly of mating parts (precision tolerance). SpiderGrip™ is a
fixturing system for high precision weld/mastic assembly operations which
capitalizes on DE-STA-CO’s Modular Tooling Principle: off-the-shelf
components to make any size/shape structure.
- SpiderGrip™ components are manufactured to such a high standard that any single component can be replaced without affecting the location or geometry of the parts that are being assembled.
- A "fuse" (break away) has been designed into the system so that in the event of a crash only a single component needs to be replaced, preserving the location of pins, clamps and gages.
BodyBuilder
- RM4 Heavy-Duty Mild Mounts
The RM4 is a highly engineered, robust structural mounting platform that can be used as a direct robot interface. RM4s provide structurally stable point of attachment for SpiderGrip appendages (limbs). Standard robot interface patterns provided. RM4 can also be with out a mounting pattern for custom mounting.
Anchors & Collar Assemblies
Anchors are used to precisely locate and attach the SpiderGrip appendage. Anchors are also engineered to act as an "over load fuse" in the event of a collision to protect the automation, the locating pins or clamp, as well as the object that was impacted. Collar assembles are used for each and every attachment point on SpiderGrip. Two bolts and precision-ground cross-keys are used to locate and hold the SpiderGrip components to each other.
Compliance Devices
- Robohand Compliance Devices are robotic tooling
alignment equipment. These compliance devices are excellent for insertion
applications where parts are misaligned or skewed, or to compensate for part
placing inaccuracies, reducing jamming of mating parts.
Robohand Compliance Devices are available in three types:- The Compliance Wrist has compliance in torsion, bending and lateral direction.
- The Lateral Compliance Device compensates for lateral misalignment.
- The Cylindrical Horizontal Compliance Device compensates for horizontal misalignment.

CLAMPS
- DE-STA-CO material handling
clamps are built to meet the most demanding requirements, to keep your
workpieces in place. Workpieces need to be held in a specific position using
a specific amount of force in the shortest period of time. Once the
workpiece is clamped, the processing of it is usually carried out. This
means that the following tasks must be fulfilled using DE-STA-CO Manual,
Pneumatic and Hydraulic Clamps including:
- Quick clamping
- Secure holding
- High clamping forces in a variety of space requirements
- Distortion-free clamping of the workpiece
- Good accessibility to the workpiece
DE-STA-CO Clamp Accessories are matched to DE-STA-CO Clamps to provide optimal performance and functionality.
