00:00:03 Visumatic's collaborative robot fastening system is a complete feed and drive package for use by machine builders. It includes an automatic feeder programmable drive system, skeleton robot program, and end effector for direct mounting to a collaborative robot wrist. The lightweight in end-of-arm tooling allows maximum robot movement speed without sacrificing collaborative safeguards. Most applications will not require traditional safety hardware like light curtains or mechanical guarding, making payback time faster. The cobot module comes complete with Visumatic's field proven power bit advance, with bit position sensors, and a fastener delivery confirmation sensor, ensuring a repeatable joining operation. The VCM-3X.2 drive tooling performs the bit advance
