John Hart has entered into a distribution agreement for the OnRobot product range, featuring a wide assortment of end-of-arm tooling (EoAT) and end effectors for collaborative robot applications.

The OnRobot range of robotic arm grippers, sensors and tool changers makes it faster and simpler to automate tasks such as packaging, materials handling, machine tending, assembly, and surface finishing. With its new partnership with OnRobot, John Hart aims to provide effective solutions to help small and mid-sized manufacturers optimise their processes and grow their businesses, with greater flexibility, higher output and improved quality.

According to John Hart, collaborative automation has levelled the playing field for small and mid-sized manufacturers, and as robots become easier to buy and implement, the tooling has become the vital element in adapting for a wide range of applications.

OnRobot’s product range features a wide assortment of tools for collaborative applications, including: electric, vacuum and magnetic grippers, the award-winning Gecko gripping technology, force/torque sensors, a 2.5D vision system, screwdriver, sander kits and tool changers. Headquartered in Odense in Denmark, OnRobot also has offices in Los Angeles and Dallas in the US, Soest (Germany), Barcelona (Spain), Warsaw (Poland), Budapest (Hungary), Shanghai (China), Tokyo (Japan), Seoul (South Korea) and Singapore.
