Basic Concepts of ABB Robot Swivels

ABB robot swivels are electromechanical devices that allow the end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) on a robotic arm to rotate around a specific axis. This rotation capability enables:

Increased Flexibility: Robots can access hard-to-reach areas and perform complex operations with greater agility.

Enhanced Precision: Swivels provide precise control over the orientation of the EOAT, ensuring accurate placement and execution of tasks.

Improved Efficiency: By reducing the need for manual intervention and enabling faster cycle times, swivels enhance overall production efficiency.
