Description

Automate Drilling for 10% of the Cost

Why spend $5,000+ on a dedicated “robotic spindle” when you already own a high-performance industrial drill?

The Carbon Fibre Cobot Tool Adapter allows you to achieve the same professional results for a fraction of the price. By mounting a standard professional power drill (like a Bosch, Makita, or DeWalt) to your robot, you get a powerful, replaceable, and easily serviceable automation solution.

  • Dedicated Robotic Spindle: ~$5,000 + Proprietary Cables + Complex Drivers.

  • Our Carbon Fibre Adapter: $495.

  • The Result: The same holes, done automatically, for 10% of the cost.

How to Control the Drill (Remote Hook-Up) Integrating a standard power tool with your cobot controls is simpler than you think. You do not need complex drivers, expensive frequency converters, or software plugins.

  1. Trigger Lock: Secure your drill’s trigger in the “ON” position using a simple velcro strap or the drill’s built-in continuous-run button.

  2. Power Control: Plug the drill into a standard external relay or smart plug controllable by 24V signals.

  3. Robot I/O Connection: Wire the relay to your robot’s Digital Output (DO).

  4. Program: Simply toggle the Digital Output HIGH to start the drill and LOW to stop it within your robot program (Polyscope, TMFlow, etc.).

Ultra-Lightweight Carbon Fibre Design Weight is money in collaborative robotics. Heavy steel mounts eat up your payload capacity, forcing you to buy larger, more expensive robots. We engineered this adapter using High-Strength Carbon Fibre Composite.

  • Weight: Only 200g (0.44 lbs).

  • Benefit: It is so light it is negligible to the robot’s payload limit, allowing you to mount heavier, more powerful drills (up to 1000W) on even the smallest cobots like the UR3 or TM5.

Rigid Precision Despite being lightweight, the composite structure is designed for maximum rigidity. It clamps the drill’s 43mm Euro Neck securely, preventing the tool from deflecting or vibrating during operation. This ensures perfectly round holes and prevents drill bit breakage.
