Mini-Parallel Grippers suit space-restricted applications.
Material Handling & Storage

Mini-Parallel Grippers suit space-restricted applications.

Used in electronic and packing applications, MGP800 Series uses hardened steel flat guide to ensure optimal force and moment resistance. Magnetic sensors can be mounted to sense jaw position, allowing for positive feedback. Manifolding through bottom mounting surface eliminates need for air fittings and allows grippers to be mounted in close array. Series comes in 5 sizes, from 12 x 10 x 20 mm to...

Dual Action Gripper facilitates O-ring assembly.
Material Handling & Storage

Dual Action Gripper facilitates O-ring assembly.

Providing up to 1,450 N force, 6-finger GS Series picks up O-rings, expands them to slip over shaft, then ejects them into groove machined into shaft. Operating from 58-145 psi air pressure, 2 pistons that are pneumatically driven independently of each other actuate gripper motions. Standard pin sizes handle O-rings ranging from 4-60 mm diameter. Optional sensing can be accomplished with 2...

Rotary Jaw Grippers are designed to rotate parts.
Material Handling & Storage

Rotary Jaw Grippers are designed to rotate parts.

To shorten production cycle times, SB Series includes 8 rotating jaws for parallel grippers that have ability to grip and turn parts simultaneously. Sizes range from models capable of handling hypodermic needles to those designed to pick-up and rotate heavy parts such as complete automotive engine blocks. While 3 models use synchronous belt drives, 5 models are geartrain-driven. Torques range...
