About SMC Corporation
SMC supplies the motion and fluid-control hardware surrounding many automated machines. Pneumatic cylinders, rotary actuators, electric slides, valves and pressure-control systems create movement, while vacuum ejectors, pads and grippers handle parts ranging from rigid metal components to cartons and flexible packaging.
Its collaborative-robot kits package grippers, valves, sensors and robot-specific interfaces into ready-to-mount end effectors. SMC also provides fieldbus manifolds, safety components, product-selection software and downloadable CAD, allowing machine builders to configure a complete pneumatic system around the robot cell.
