Grippers serve as robot hands in automated motion devices.

Grippers, offered in 2- and 3-finger variations, simulate motion of human hands in parts handling applications. Mounted to any motion device or used as hands on robots, products operate on plant air and feature double acting drive motion for gripping parts externally or internally. Inlet pressure may be reduced to handle fragile parts. Fingers can be fabricated to conform to special shapes, and...

Micro Grippers suit automation applications.

Delivering pick and place service, grippers feature blank fingers that are profiled to fit small parts. Finger sets can be exchanged without disturbing mounting setup, close with spring force, and open with plant air using valves on 3-way control circuits. Products are offered in 5 micro sizes, in 3 basic configurations, and in 4 mounting styles with choice of aluminum alloy or stainless steel...

Air Cylinders suit space limited applications.
Construction Equipment and Supplies

Air Cylinders suit space limited applications.

Unconventional Air Cylinders are offered with short strokes in sizes from 1-6 in. diameter, in all basic cylinder configurations including double-ended pistons. Fluid transfer is through O-ring seals on cylinder mounting face. Flow passages can be built into user's structure at any location where all plumbing connections are outside work zone. Design helps avoid accidental damage to supply lines...

Motion Transfer Units have adjustable end of travel stop.
Material Handling & Storage

Motion Transfer Units have adjustable end of travel stop.

Low-profile, air-actuated motion transfer units employ pistons that are keyed internally against rotation and incorporate adjustable stop mechanism for end of stroke positioning. Basic modules operate through 4-way air valves for manual control near work station or through solenoid operated valves from remote location. Units operate in any position with motion range to 12 in. End effectors with...

Thin Disc Grippers do not mar disc face.
Material Handling & Storage

Thin Disc Grippers do not mar disc face.

Available in 2- and 3-finger configurations, thin disc grippers grasp discs on outside diameter or inside hole to avoid contact with critical surfaces. Operated on plant air, pinch force can be reduced with pressure regulation to handle fragile parts made from glass or plastic. Drive mechanism offers contoured fingers to fit work pieces.

Rotary Indexer works without servos.
Communication Systems & Equipment

Rotary Indexer works without servos.

Indexer provides angular rotation in small increments in either direction. It can be used in two operating modes. One mode is operation as small bench top turn table; other mode is providing rotary motion when mounted to independent motion device or robot arm. Plant air is used with simple on/off digital programming using solenoid operated four way valves and standard controllers.

Hydraulic Actuators have threaded body mounting.
Mechanical Power Transmission

Hydraulic Actuators have threaded body mounting.

Miniature short stroke, hydraulic actuators suit installations where space is limited on jigs, fixtures, molds, general purpose tooling, and O.E.M. applications. Fluid lines and fittings are located at rear and are isolated from work area. Force output is rated from 1 to 3 tons in 5 models rated at 3,000 psi. Design offers leak-proof SAE ports and polyurethane lip seals on fine...
