Gripper Jaws & Fingers
Custom CNC machined gripper jaws and fingers for robotic handling, matched jaw sets, non-marring contact, part location, and CTQ inspection planning.
Review scopeCNC Machined EOAT Product
Sensor Brackets & Cobot Mounts
Custom CNC machined sensor brackets, cobot mounts, cable-relief plates, and lightweight EOAT support parts for tight robot cell clearances.
Sensor brackets and cobot mounts look simple until they collide with the cell, block service access, add too much payload, or drift after adjustment. The page focus is clearance, stiffness, and repeatable positioning.

Buyer Questions This Part Must Answer
- Where must the sensor sit relative to the tool, product, and robot path?
- Does the bracket need slots, adjustment range, or hard locating features?
- Can mass be reduced without adding vibration?
- How will cable relief, strain relief, and maintenance access be handled?

Material Options to Review
Material choice should follow payload, contact, cleaning, wear, and documentation requirements. These are common starting points for RFQ review, not a substitute for drawing-specific material callouts.
- AL6061-T6 for lightweight brackets and support plates
- AL7075-T6 when stiffness and weight matter together
- SUS304 or SUS316L for washdown or impact-prone cells
- POM or nylon for non-marring support and low-friction guides
Machining Focus
The machining route should protect the features that affect robot fit, product contact, sealing, replacement, and repeat-order stability.
slot repeatability, sensor datum faces, and adjustment ranges
thin-wall stiffness and lightweight pockets
cable relief, radius transitions, and edge breaks
mounting access inside tight robot cell envelopes
Visual RFQ Context
Images to Anchor the Engineering Discussion
Use these product references to decide what belongs in the drawing package: interface faces, part-contact areas, service access, pneumatic or cable details, and the features that should become CTQ inspection points.
Cobot mounting context
Relevant when sensor or gripper brackets must fit inside tight cell envelopes.
End-effector clearance context
Helps buyers think about payload, vibration, and cable routing together.
Compact hardware access
Shows why slots, fastener access, and cable relief need early review.
Inspection Plan by Functional Feature
A useful FAI or dimensional reporting plan starts from part function. The table below shows what buyers usually need to verify before releasing the sample or repeating the part.
| Feature | Risk Controlled | Typical Inspection | Buyer Output |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sensor datum and adjustment slots | Calibration drift and commissioning rework | Slot width, position, and datum face checks | Sensor alignment baseline |
| Lightweight pocketed geometry | Vibration, flex, or unnecessary payload mass | Wall thickness and retained rib review | DFM notes on stiffness and payload |
| Cable relief and service access | Cable damage and difficult maintenance | Edge break, radius, and clearance review | Assembly access notes |
RFQ Checklist
Include these details in the first email to reduce clarification cycles and make the quote easier for engineering and procurement to review.
- Sensor model, bracket location, and target adjustment range
- Robot or cobot model, payload limits, and collision envelope
- Cable routing, connector clearance, and strain-relief requirements
- Material, finish, and cell environment
- Calibration or alignment features that must be inspected
Risk Controls Before PO
These controls prevent avoidable sample rework, ambiguous inspection results, and repeat-order mismatches.
- Avoid treating slots as cosmetic when they control sensor alignment.
- Add cable relief early instead of cutting it after first assembly.
- Check collision clearance using the full EOAT assembly, not the bracket alone.
- Use hard stops or dowels when repeatable replacement matters.

Application context changes material, finish, inspection, and documentation requirements. Review the adjacent pages before sending the RFQ if the part is tied to a regulated, high-cycle, or uptime-sensitive cell.
RFQ Readiness
One RFQ Package That Engineering, Quality, and Procurement Can Use
A good EOAT machining inquiry should make the part manufacturable, inspectable, and purchasable in the same thread. Use this checklist before sending CAD so the first reply can include useful DFM, lead-time, inspection, and document assumptions.

- CTQ dimensions, datum surfaces, mating parts, and acceptance method
- Prototype quantity, repeat quantity, annual forecast, and ship-to country
- Inspection output needed: FAI, dimensional report, COA/MTR, or buyer format
Capability fit
Machining route, tolerance risk, and feature-level fit review.
Trust assets
FAI, COA/MTR, NDA, onboarding, and RFQ checklist downloads.
Inspection scope
CTQ dimensions, dimensional checks, FAI records, and buyer evidence.
Material records
Grade selection, COA/MTR support, and finish documentation.
