3 Product Description
3.1 General Description of the Gripper
Gripping systems use a vacuum to lift defined products. Workpieces of different sizes can be lifted. The
gripping system achieves its maximum load-bearing capacity when the suction cup is placed on an airtight
workpiece with a smooth surface.
The handling system is responsible for the motion in the various axes (robot/gantry). The gripping system
is mounted on the robot/gantry through the flange (interface DIN EN ISO 9409-1 50-4-M6).
Parts of the gripper SBPG are produced using an additive manufacturing process.
The gripper consists of a main gripper body in which the vacuum switch and – depending on the version –
the vacuum generator nozzle are integrated, an (optional) swiveling unit and a quick-change adapter
(standard: vacuum and compressed air duct open).
Additional quick-change adapters and adapters for connecting to other types of robot are available as ac-
cessories.
(> See ch. Accessories)
The gripper is available in four different versions:
•
Internal vacuum generation and pneumatic swiveling unit (SBPG X PSE ...)
•
Internal vacuum generation, rigid (SBPG X ...)
•
External vacuum generation and pneumatic swiveling unit (SBPG M PSE ...)
•
External vacuum generation, rigid (SBPG M ...)
In the case of grippers with external vacuum generation, external vacuum generation is not included in
the delivery. If you have any questions about the design, please contact the Schmalz service team at:
