Mini-Electric Grippers aid in manipulation of small objects.
Intended for 5- and 6-axis R12 articulated robot arms, E Series Grippers utilize mini integrated motor/lead screw drives and are available with stand-alone MCUs to accommodate any make of robot. E1 Fulcrum (scissor action) has long fingers and 10 N closing force. When fully open, tips are 30 mm apart. E2 is similar but has short jaws that let user attach fingers. E3 Fulcrum gripper has jaws and...

Grippers integrate distance and presence sensor.
SCHUNK has enlarged its vast modular system of grippers again. As the first ever standardized gripper, the PGN-plus universal gripper, and the MPG-plus gripper for small components from SCHUNK are now equipped with an integrated distance and presence sensor. With the new OAS, both modules quickly transform into seeing" grippers without needing an expensive vision system. The optical system can be...
