Automatic docking

The ODU DOCK® Silver‐Line can be easily mated automatically by means of an electrical or pneumatic force. ODU’s durable contact technology is ideally equipped to meet the challenges of automatic docking. The interface including cable assembly is also ready for immediate use.

Quick-change head for easy maintenance

The ODU DOCK Quick‐Change Head meets all requirements for up to 10 million mating cycles. With this quick‐coupling system, you can replace only the interchange part instead of the entire connector, which makes your connection even more durable.

Industrial robots

Today’s industrial manufacturing and production processes would be unthinkable without docking and robot systems. Thanks to its robust and durable construction, the ODU DOCK is ideal for use in harsh environments. With the optional quick‐change head, valuable time can also be saved when replacing parts.

The modular principle behind ODU DOCK

If required, you can also combine the proven ODU‐MAC® modules in your ODU DOCK Connector by means of an adapter. This allows data, fiber optics, and media such as air and fluids to be transmitted.
