Any Robot | Any EOAT
pneumagiQ PQ180 has won the Red Dot design award for 2023.
PQ180 (pronounced P-Q-One-Eighty) is a compact Universal Pneumatic EOAT Interface with a mechanical form factor designed to seamlessly mount two pneumatic EOAT at a 180° offset from each other.
Ideal for Material Handling
No more long wires for sensors
Maximize robot payload utilization
Increase robot reach for better machine utilization
Perfect for usage in harsh environments
Clean oil & burrs easily

* The combined payload of the tool mounting face 1 & 2 must not exceed beyond the overall payload.
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.
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.
To indicate the functioning of pneumagiQ and communication between pneumagiQ and the robot.
Mount the suitable Robot Coupler to interface pneumagiQ with the specific robot.
Exhaust port with built-in silencers allows pneumagiQ to be both silent and efficient.
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.
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.
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.
pneumagiQ PQ180 comes with URCap that enables it to be plug and play with all models of Universal Robots.
For other robots, gantries, custom-built machinery, PQ180 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.
