Pneumatic Parallel Grippers
Pneumatic parallel grippers are essential tools in industrial automation, requiring specialist gripping and handling operations. These grippers use compressed air to move two jaws that open and close in a parallel manner, ensuring a consistent and secure grip on a wide range of materials and shapes. Their ability to maintain a constant and uniform gripping force makes them ideal for applications demanding high precision, such as assembling electronic components or handling delicate materials. Additionally, their speed of operation and reliability make them a popular choice in sectors such as automation, robotics, and large-scale production, where minimising downtime and maximising productivity is crucial.
30° Opening Grippers: Versatility and Precision
Grippers with a 30° opening are designed for handling operations that require precision and versatility in tight spaces. This type of gripper is ideal for operations that need a delicate grip on sensitive or small-sized objects. The 30° opening feature allows operators to have better and more direct control over the piece's orientation during the gripping process, reducing the risk of damaging the component. These grippers typically find application in the electronics and mechatronics sectors, where precise handling of components is critical.
Self-Centering Parallel Grippers: Maximum Precision
Self-centering parallel grippers stand out for their ability to automatically center the object being manipulated. This feature makes them particularly useful in applications where high precision is required, such as positioning components on automated assembly lines. The robust structure of self-centering grippers allows them to operate in challenging conditions, including environments with high sealing requirements, such as those exposed to dust or liquids, due to their compliance with high IP protection standards. This feature makes them suitable for use in sectors like electronics, automation, and mechatronics, where protection against external elements is crucial. Self-centering grippers have also proven to be essential tools for improving the efficiency of automation operations, reducing setup times, and maintaining high standards of quality and repeatability in the positioning and handling of parts.
