Our standard range of angular grippers includes small-component, universal, large-stroke and sealed grippers with 2- or 3-fingers for safe, precise handling of workpieces with different weights. They can be used in a wide range of applications, from electronics assembly and packaging technology to loading and unloading machine tools. The ability to combine a gripper with elements such as sensor systems, product-specific gripper fingers or plastic inserts offers increased productivity, While innovative design tweaks such as the positively guided toggle drive system allow precise, synchronized gripping for greater process reliability.
The mechanical gripping force maintenance device ensures that a minimum clamping force will be applied even if there is a drop in pressure. In the AS/S variant this acts as a closing force, in the IS variant as an opening force. Besides this, gripping force maintenance can be used to increase gripping force or for single actuated gripping.
The ambient temperature describes the temperature of the air or the direct operating environment in which a gripper is operated (and not the workpiece temperature, as this is normally significantly higher than the ambient temperature). We also offer special solutions for ambient temperatures above 130 °C. We would be happy to review your use case based on your specific process data.
is calculated for force-fit clamping with a coefficient of static friction of 0.1 and a safety factor of 2 against workpiece slippage at acceleration due to gravity g. In the case of form-fit gripping, significatnly higher permissible workpiece weights are possible.
Example: - For the catalog-specified workpiece weight of 5 kg Gripping force of the gripper 1,000 N Coefficient of friction μ 0.1; safety factor 2; g 9.81
