identical quick-change plate while the first is being cleaned/drying. For special widths, an additional
panel is attached to the quick-change profile. The sealing plate can then be attached to this additional
panel.
J Sealing Plate
The sealing plate (J) is adhered to the quick-change section (I). The sealing plate is made of technical
foam. The standard grid is equipped with two rows of suction cells that have a distance of 28 mm from
one another (designation: 2R28). The sealing plate can be quickly replaced thanks to a special adhesive
film. For details, see the “Assembly” section.
Note on foam properties:
The technical properties and appearance of foams may vary due to production conditions. The user is
responsible for testing whether a foam is suitable for a specific application. We would be happy to assist
you in placing your first order by performing grip tests at our premises if you provide us with your original
workpieces.
Since the foam height is also subject to tolerances, we recommend adjusting the height of the gripper
every time you replace the foam. For safe use, we recommend at least 50% foam compression when
picking up the workpieces in order to achieve optimal function and foam service life.
This flexing makes the foam more permeable to air. When a high number of working cycles is reached,
it may be necessary to replace the foam, even if there is no visible indication of wear.
The foam may not be cleaned with a compressed-air gun. This would make the foam permeable to air
in the places where compressed air was applied.
R Ventilation Cylinder Assembly Unit
The ventilation cylinder assembly unit is attached to the base section of the gripper via a mounting plate
(2.1) and four screws (2.2). The separating cylinder (2.3) that is mounted on the base plate connects
and separates the reservoir chambers and valve chambers to and from one another. The separating
cylinder is single-acting and is pneumatically operated. This unit can be removed from the gripper for
maintenance.
