Cost. And as she said, they want to be able to move the robot between machines. Wiht no i/o, there is new connections that need to be made each time you want to deploy the robot elsewhere. If it was just the one machine, I'd agree with you 100% :)
@@IkkFedt make a deployable cylinder on magnetic bases and connected to the robot, add a connector on side of control with a bridge to cycle start button. not so expensive :) easier to set up and program after changing the machine
Don't forget the cost to run a air compressor vs the cost to run a few low power stepper motors. This machine maybe loading the part also. Oh and most air compressors are really noisy. I personally have my eyes set on one of those new California air compressors. They are soooo nice.
What vises are used in this work cell to secure the work? Thank you!
WTF why wouldnt you have the door open close with a pneumatic cylinder and cycle start done with i/o?

@@MeDieValUKRAINE That's not a bad idea at all. Very clever :)

most cnc machines require air anyways, and besides, you can then use the air for cleaning chips and debris from jaw surfaces and part.
