Parts of pneumagiQ PQ90

PQ90 IO Connector

I/O Connector​

Connect directly to the Tool I/O Port of Universal Robots (eSeries & CB3). For other robots, connect directly to the controllers and communicate over Modbus RTU.

PQ90 Compressed Air Inlet

Compressed Air Inlet​

Connect just one pneumatic tube and operate two pneumatic tools & one air blow-off port. Eliminate the need for multiple pneumatic tubes and wire packages running across the robot's body.

Sensor Connectors​​

Sensors installed on the pneumatic tool to know its state (open/close) can be connected directly to pneumagiQ, avoiding need for lengthy wiring to the robot controller.

PQ90 Robot Mounting Face

Robot Mounting Face​

Mount the suitable Robot Coupler to interface pneumagiQ with the specific robot.

PQ90 Exhaust Port

Exhaust Port​

Exhaust port with built-in silencers allows pneumagiQ to be both silent and efficient.

PQ90 Gripper Mounting Face

Tool Mounting Face

Select & install the Tool Couplers suitable for the pneumatic tool being coupled to pneumagiQ.

Each of the two Mounting Faces can have different type / brand / model of pneumatic tool installed, as suited for the application.

Make use of the in-line air ports for ‘hose free connection’ to connect with any pneumatic tools as main line.

PQ90 Status Indicator

Status Indicator​

To indicate the functioning of pneumagiQ and communication between pneumagiQ and the robot.

Air Blow-off Port

An integrated air blow-off port to clean the work piece and/or the work piece holder before unloading / loading the new part. Ideal for most machine tending applications, or, can be used for other applications such as spray painting etc.

Robot compatibility

pneumagiQ PQ90 comes with URCap that enables it to be plug and play with all models of Universal Robots.

For other robots, gantries, custom-built machinery, PQ90 comes with the industry standard Modbus RTU (RS-485). We chose one of the most fundamental communication protocols. This again is an intentional product design call that enables pneumagiQ to be used for robots, cobots, gantries or custom designed machines. 

One can use any globally available standard converters from RS-485 to other communication protocol such as TCP/IP, IO link and so on to control the pneumatic tools.
