VIDEO: A Close-Up Look at Protective Covers for ABB, KUKA and FANUC Teach Pendants
Over the course of his career at FOXON, our sales representative Tomáš Krepčík has handled hundreds of damaged teach pendants that were later repaired. It made him wonder whether there was anything that could protect these expensive devices from mechanical damage. Today, we are a European distributor of special protective covers and films.
“Tomáš, show us how the protection works.”
With Protective Covers and Films, You Can:
Significantly extend the service life of teach pendants
Reduce the risk of scratches and impact damage
Save maintenance time and money on repairs and replacements
Key Features of Protective Covers for Teach Pendants
They absorb shocks and drops on the back and sides of the panel.
They are resistant to chemicals and extreme temperatures: Santoprene™ (TPV) material withstands temperature extremes, exposure to coolants, lubricants and common industrial chemicals. It does not deform or harden even with long-term use.
Thanks to ergonomic shaping you have easy access to connectors and controls.
The non-slip texture and perforation ensure a secure grip, even when wearing gloves.
Display Protection – Small Investment, Major Savings
The display is the most sensitive part of a teach pendant. Once it gets scratched, turns dull or is damaged by chemicals, you often have no choice but to replace the entire LCD panel. That’s why we offer both protective films and tempered glass.
Protective films for teach pendants:
Precisely pre-cut for a specific display type
Protecting against scratches, scuffs, oils and grease
Made from durable PET (polyethylene terephthalate)
And easy to replace with a new one when worn out
By replacing the film regularly, you keep the display readable and functional and avoid the costly replacement of the entire LCD panel. The films are available in packs of 5.
Tempered Safety Glass Increases Impact Resistance
Just like with mobile phones, protective safety glass is available for some types of KUKA and ABB teach pendants. Unlike PET films, it also protects your display against minor impacts. In the event of a strong impact, the glass breaks in such a way that the shards stay in place and do not scatter around.
