One of our customer want to introduce a UR5 in front of its 5-axis CNC machine. Everything is set to work perfectly except that the vice in the machine cannot be activated automaticaly.
Here's a video of the customer setup: VIDEO

The customer need to figure how he can feed its vice with compressed air without having twisted hoses.
He will be using a SCHUNK TANDEM KSP and a Fanuc Robodrill D21LiA5.
Is there any plug and play option to route air hoses to the vice? I f not, is there an easy to do it?

Thanks. We also looked at rotary union like this one made by SMC. I am just not sure about the results. All I know is that the client had to design the vice on its own!

Here are a few pictures of what we did, the orange is the adapter for mounting to the nose of a 5C collet 4th/5th axis turret.
Curious to know how you guys solve it in the end.
