Gripping force maintenance version AS/IS
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 version this acts as a closing force, and in the IS version as an opening force. The image shows the AS version. The gripping force maintenance can also be used to increase the gripping force or for one-way gripping.

Settings of the control cams during monitoring with inductive proximity switches
Monitoring with inductive proximity switch can be performed as standard from size 64. In delivery state, the positions "gripper open" and "gripper closed" are preset with the control cams. The inductive sensors must be ordered separately and are slid into the housing up to the stop and clamped.
In order to monitor any other position, such as "workpiece gripped" for example, both control cams can be individually set in the respective base jaws.

Optional mounting possibility under the cover sheet for customer-specific additional structure
In delivery state, a cover sheet is mounted to the gripper. This can be removed if necessary. Under the cover sheet are threads and fittings for mounting customer-specific designs for implementing additional functions.

Application example
Application example
Loading and unloading of a machine tool optimized for the cycle time. By using two grippers on the robot, the machine tool can be loaded automatically in a way that is optimized for the cycle time, and productivity can be increased. After the finished part has been removed from the first gripper, the automated clamping force block is cleaned of coolant and chips via the integrated blow-off nozzle of the double gripper. After that, the second gripper can directly insert the unmachined part and the machining process can be started. The finished part is then deposited and the next unmachined part is picked up again in parallel with the machining of the workpiece.
