    New Product: Tool Swivel Heads

    July 10, 2008
    The SRH Series of 180° swivel heads are completely modular and consist of the tried-and-tested SRU rotary modules combined with two swivel corners, electric feed-throughs, and media feed-throughs.

    Six sizes and 12 torques ranging from 0.9 to 67.8 Nm (0.6 to 50 lb-ft) are available. The SRH’s electric feedthrough is designed to use digital signals for sensors or simple actuators. EDF feed-throughs provide greater reliability than the breakage-prone method of routing cables through the center bore of a rotary actuator.

    The media feed-through is directly connected to the mounting surfaces of the swivel head, and both the swivel head itself and the rotating grippers can be supplied with compressed air directly without hoses.
