Stäubli Electrical Connectors has introduced the CombiTac align 15, a modular connector system engineered to meet mechanical and electrical demands of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) during both automatic opportunity and conventional charging processes.
The CombiTac align 15 addresses the critical need for precise docking in logistics operations by compensating misalignments when AGVs and AMRs connect to their charging stations. This innovation enhances operational efficiency across industries such as warehousing, distribution, retail, food and beverage, healthcare, automotive, and chemical sectors.
Its design incorporates a connector integrated into a three-dimensional misalignment compensation system, featuring a spring-loaded floating assembly combined with a funnel. This configuration allows misalignment compensation of up to ±15 mm sideways, ±10 mm vertically, and 20 mm in depth.
The system comprises two power and four signal contacts. The power contacts support currents up to 100 A, accommodating wire cross-sections up to 25 mm² with crimp or screw termination (vehicle side only). The four signal contacts are compatible with wires ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 mm² and can carry up to 10 A. Designed for durability, the CombiTac align 15 ensures reliable power and signal connections for up to 100,000 mating cycles.
This connector is a new addition to the CombiTac modular connector product range, which is being expanded by Stäubli Electrical Connectors AG.
The CombiTac family is designed for customers seeking reliability and adaptability, the modular connector CombiTac offers safe connections through advanced MULTILAM technology, all in a compact, space-saving design suitable for housing or panel mounting. The connector supports comprehensive connectivity options, including signal, power, high-voltage, data, and fiber connections, as well as pneumatic and fluid couplings. With the highest level of customization available through an easy-to-use online configurator, CombiTac can be precisely tailored to meet the most demanding requirements.
