What is Custom Robot Protective Covers and Why Do We Use Them?

MORE Protection - Evotec - Robot Cover

Covers protecting from chemicals and their vapour

We also design and manufacture custom covers for chemical flow systems, e.g. for sulfuric acid.

If you are looking for more details, kindly visit our website.

If the substance flowing inside the system could cause harm to human health and life, we can use chemically resistant fabrics. Thanks to special inspection windows employees can monitor the system for leaks, which increases safety and quality of work in production.

In our portfolio you can also find:

Protective covers for welding tongs

In order to perform its functions, the robot needs a tool – for example welding tongs.

When contaminants get inside parts of the welding tongs, they cause blockage and damage. The cables on the welding tools can be damaged by heat or accumulation of weld spatter.

EVO_heat covers for welding tongs are made of technical fabric with excellent heat-reflecting properties, which is resistant to sparks and high temperature generated in welding processes. In
addition to heat resistance, the fabrics also have hydrophobic and oleophobic coats. This increases the level of protection against dust commonly present in such processes.

Protective covers for grippers

A gripper is a tool for picking, moving and placing parts. These devices are often exposed to oils, coolants and dust, as well as hot spatterand radiant heat.

Protective covers shield grippers from dust and other contaminants getting inside their moving parts. Such solutions mean increased production quality and efficiency. They also extend the lifetime of these smaller mobile devices, so that they can work malfunction-free for a long time. This ensures production quality and eliminates malfunctions and unplanned downtime.

Protective covers for actuators

Actuators are small but very important parts of machines, which occasionally require special protection.

They can be exposed to particles of dust or other contaminants getting inside their moving parts, which can cause malfunctions and very serious damage. This often stops the entire machine, which results in repairs and the need to replace the actuators, which can be very expensive.

Protective covers for actuators prevent contaminants from getting inside the parts, protecting them from malfunctions and excessive wear. By using covers for actuators you can extend their lifetime and decrease the risk of malfunctions.

Protective covers for cables and conduits

Protective covers for cables and conduits made of technical fabrics chosen depending on the working process.

Tehu supply professional and honest service.

Such type of solution is used when the upper arm of the robot is in direct contact with the conduit that contains power cables for the tool. When the robot is working, the conduits hits the surface of the robot, causing damage. The protective cover prevents degradation of the robot surface. It also protects the conduits from premature cracking due to repeated impact against the machine.
Conduits in production lines can also be exposed to harmful factors such as sparks and hot spatter, which could cause burns.

Thanks to covers made of heat-resistant fabrics, the conduits are no longer in danger of burning. Using conduits covers, we can increase safety and order in production lines.

Protective covers for paint guns and spray nozzles

EVOTEC protective covers for paint guns and spray nozzles are professional tailor-made products which do not block or hamper the work of the device. They are also easy to install and replace.

Thanks to the covers, the varnish or paint splashes do not accumulate directly on the device, which helps keep it in good condition for longer and reduces the need for cleaning. If the cover is used up, you just take it off and put on a new one. You do not have to spend time on cleaning and the device is not exposed to paint or other chemicals that could cause damage to its surface.

The righr type of robot protection guarantees malfunction-free work.

Industrial robots working in particularly difficult conditions need highly effective protective solutions. We can use specially designed rotary rings, which are a base for installation of the cover. They protect the robot from harmful effects of e.g. dust. They do not limit the movement of the robot, increase the level of protection and protect the most vulnerable places. They also shield the base of the robot, where power connections are located.

If you choose rings, they become an integral part of the cover, increasing its protective properties.

Robot Cover - DuPont

Robot cover made of DuPont™ Tyvek®  offers excellent protection from aerosols and particles.

Key challenges with robot protection: robots work in a variety of conditions and environments where paint splashes and dirt are likely.

Values that Tyvek® can provide:

  • Flexible and lightweight, Tyvek® can be custom made to fit robot parts, Tyvek® can be easily sewn and outfitted with Velcro®, grommets, strapping, elastic and snaps as needed to provide wonderful coverage.
  • Antistatic and low-lint means Tyvek® won’t potentially damage the painting surface.
  • Tyvek® can help provide optimal protection against paint aerosols and dusts to keep robots clean and extent their life.
  • The tear resistance of Tyvek® enables longer use time of the cover.

Tyvek® Styles:
Tyvek® A, E, R, R (when more breathability is needed)
