The end effector of the NC machine tool robot is an additional device installed on the wrist of the loading and unloading manipulator of the NC machine tool to perform certain operations or operations. There are many kinds of end effectors for NC machine tools to meet the different operation requirements of robots. The truss manipulator manufacturer tells you that the end actuators can be divided into handling, processing and measuring.

When designing the end effector of CNC machine tool robot, the following issues should be noted:

1. The end effector of NC lathe robot is designed according to the requirements of robot operation. The appearance of a new end effector can add a new application place for robots. Therefore, new robot end effectors created according to the needs of work and people's imagination will continuously expand the application field of robots.

2. The sum of the weight of the end effector of the NC lathe robot, the weight of the object to be grasped and the operating force allowed by the robot. Therefore, the end effector of the robot is required to be small in volume, light in weight and compact in structure.

3. The omnipotence and specificity of the end effector of NC machine tool robot are contradictory. The universal end effector is very complex in structure, even difficult to realize. At present, the robot end effectors with simple structure and weak versatility can be used for production.

4. Versatility and omnipotence are two concepts. Versatility refers to one machine with multiple functions, while universality refers to limited end effectors that can be used for different robots. This requires that end effectors have standard mechanical interfaces to make end effectors standardized and modular.

5. The end effector of CNC lathe robot should be easy to install and maintain, and easy to realize computer control. The electric actuator is convenient for computer control. Therefore, robot system integration tells you that the mainstream of industrial robot actuators is electrical, followed by hydraulic and pneumatic.
