…with spring support

All grippers of this series are equipped with inserts for two magnetic field sensors, and the main components are made of hardened and tempered steel.

Customers Advantages:

• A double-acting piston with a ring magnet for magnetic field detection is connected to a piston rod whose fork-shaped end is fastened to two guiding pins.
• The rotation of the jaws is synchronized with the guiding pin/jaw module.
• When the guiding pins slide in their slot, they convert the vertical movement of the piston into an opposite, synchronous rotary movement of the two jaws.
• Between the opened 90° position and the 0° gripper position, each jaw has an effective rotary stroke angle of 90°, plus an overstroke for gripping before reaching the final gripper position of approx. 1.5°. The jaws must be designed for a gripping position of 0° (parallel jaws).
• The safety spring ensures that the gripper keeps holding a part also if there is a failure in the air supply. It also allows you to use the gripper in the single-acting mode.
