Im also interested in different options for TP cable reels. I found this after a quick google search. http://www.roboreels.com/products/Origi…Robotic-Systems .
But i wonder what option i need to be able to connect it from outside of the controller cabinet. I have seen this grey connector before on paint robots. But quite recently i asked FANUC Sweden about this option and i was informed that they do not sell these type of connector.
I believe that they do sell it, and that they just don't know anything about it yet. I have also seen pluggs that you could use to detach the pendant cable and keep the robot in operation without any pendant. Do someone have the partnumbers for all of this stuff?
I have used the Roboreels units for a few years and they seem to work well. We have 7 units operating on our gantry lines. You need to pay attention when retracting the cable so the cable winds in correctly and doesn't build up on one side. We had one that broke the plastic pins for the pivot that allows it to move side to side. No other failures yet.
The grey connector is a Honda connector. You can purchase them through an electronics distributor. The roboreel will have the connectors need to plug in to your robot, so not sure why you would need to purchase one. Talk to the Roboreel people about what you need.
I've had great success with a simple Wonder Winder.

We buy them much cheaper. Admitted it's not an auto-winder, but it's simple approach leaves much less to fail.
