No reach

7-axis flexibility

The same freedom of motion as the human arm

Reach where 6-axis cobots can't

7-axis give OB7 cobots unmatched flexibility. Their lightweight, small robot footprint and extra flexibility make them ideal for working in various industrial manufacturing environments and assembly lines.

Reach where 6-axis robots can't
Mill tending

Reliable & durable

OB7 is engineered to perform and has been field proven since 2017 in shops all across America. 

Intuitive

Intuitive

Use the control handle to physically teach a job, without programming. Guide OB7 by hand, using the simple control buttons at your fingertips.

Deburring

Agile

Redeploy OB7 to a new job quickly and easily, as needs change. Once a job is learned it can be quickly recalled on the teach tablet at any time.

OB Vision

Robot vision option: table top picking

Simply show OB7 a sample of the part to be picked and it is automatically programmed. Multiple different objects can be identified and sorted simultaneously. Parts are easily picked out of grid trays. OB Vision is compatible with most grippers, including Productive Robotics’ PG2 grippers and most vacuum grippers.  

OB Vision

OB7 robots are compatible with most grippers, including:

Robotiq, OnRobot, Piab, Schmalz, PhD, Schunk and more.

Rolling stand

OB7‭ ‬Rolling Stand

Mounted on this industrial quality and stable rolling stand, OB7 can quickly and easily be moved between work cells. An integrated battery back-up power supply keeps OB7 powered up and running when moving.

PG2 gripper

‬PG2‭ ‬Parallel Gripper

A fully integrated two finger electric robotic gripper designed for OB7 series collaborative robots. IP65 rated and compatible with Productive Robotics’ dual gripper installations. Machinable fingers and silicone finger pads included.

Dual gripper

DUAL PG2 Gripper

Minimize machine wait time during part reloading by unloading a completed part, then immediately reloading a new blank. This eliminates the extra trip to and from the machine, and in lathe operations with short cycle times, also frees the operator to prepare other jobs.

Deburring stage

Deburring Stage

As the deburring wheels wear, the Deburring Stage adjusts automatically while continuing to apply a constant force as parts are processed.  The deburring stage supports most common rotary bench grinders or tools. The OB7 robots provide control of the deburring stage and rotary tool.  

Fluid controller

Fluid Controller

Controls pneumatically driven fluid and bonding material delivery, including vacuum retract at the end of bonding cycles.  Both dispense pressure and vacuum retract pressure are adjustable.  Dispense and retract actuation and times are fully controller by any OB7 robot.

Table option

OB7 Assembly Table

A convenient and optimized work surface which mounts securely to the OB7 Rolling Stand. Made from  6061-T6 anodized aluminum with integrated, threaded, work fixture hold-down and pin registration holes.  

Sander

Sanding Attachment

Provides dynamic control of contact forces in sanding applications. The ATI Orbital Sander can be easily integrated onto any OB7 robot.

IO-2_Interface

General Equipment Interface

The OB7 General Equipment Interface (GEI) is a cost effective solution for interfacing to most production machinery. The interface has 8 electrically isolated digital and analog inputs, 8 electrically digital outputs, and 4 analog inputs. The OB7 GEI connects to OB7 with a single cable which can be unplugged when moving between jobs.

All inclusive machine tending packages

Complete out-of-the-box solutions with everything needed to add OB7 robotic machine tending to your CNC mill, lathe or deburring.

Available with OB7, Stretch, Max 8 and Max 12 Cobots
