Software modules
guideZ is a wizard for commissioning components quickly and extremely easily. It enables user-guided implementation and commissioning for truly anyone. Users can switch between guideZ, expertZ and monitorZ mode with one and the same software module.
expertZ is the software tool for all gripping experts. It makes it possible to use the option of optimizing the gripper parameters defined in guideZ for the specific application. monitorZ is used to monitor the gripper unit status at a glance during operation. Gripper positions, operating statuses – everything on one screen to guarantee maximum system availability.
Comfort App
The Comfort app, coordinated to the robot manufacturer, makes it possible to actuate and operate the gripper conveniently and directly using the respective robot control panel. The easiest setup mode and all necessary commands for hitch-free automatic mode.
Topology
The ready-to-connect SCM communication module is placed in the robot controller and connected to the controller using the ready-to-connect cable. The respective gripper can now be connected using an external or internal robot cable. The gripping parameters are taught in using a standard PC. The temporary network connection for this is not needed beyond setup. The gripper can then be used via the robot control panel and the Zimmer Comfort app installed on it.
