JKE Robotics, S.L. - Pneumatic actuators

The unit of twist is a device that allows the rotation of an object. The necessary power for the rotation supplies through pneumatics pressesure. The unit of twist converts the pressesure of air from a linear movement to a rotational movement. This attains thanks to a zip (rack) and a piñón. When supplying pressesure of air, the pistón is pushed in a linear movement. Joined to the pistón is situated the zip (rack). This zip to his time is pushed in a linear movement when the pistón moves . The rear teeth of the zip are meshed with the teeth of the piñón forcing to this to turn. The piñón can turn to the original position supplying air at the side contrary of the cylinder, pushing the rear part of the zip in contrary sense. The piñón is connected to an axis that goes out out of the body of the unit of twist. To this axis can him connect different tools or harps.

JKE Robotics Has of 5 different types of pneumatics actuators, PLOUGH, PLOUGHS, AR, AR-CABBAGE, AR-DIS, with a total of 50 distinct combinations in function of versions and sizes.
