Take note of the following when mounting:
•
Dirt particles or foreign bodies in the gripper connections, hoses or pipelines can lead to partial or complete
gripper malfunction.
•
Shorten the hoses and pipelines as much as possible.
•
Insufficient compressed air is supplied if the internal diameter on the compressed air side is too small. This
prevents the gripper from performing as specified in its defined performance data.
•
Protect the flow gripper SCGS from vibrations and shocks.
•
Hose lines must be laid without bends or crimps.
•
Connection symbols and designations are located on the gripper. These must be observed.
6.2 Mechanical Attachment
Use only the connections, mounting holes and attachment materials that have been provided.
The flow gripper may be installed in any position.
The flow gripper SCGS can be adapted to your handling system using the thread integrated in the holder.
1. Use the G4 female thread of size G¼" to mechani-
cally fasten the SCGS.
2. Use the G1 male thread of size M20x1 (interface 6)
to mount suction areas and suction pads or cus-
tomer-specific grippers.
6.3 Connecting Compressed Air
The compressed air connection (inlet) for supplying the integrated vacuum generation is labeled with the number
1, as shown in the figure.
4
Connect the compressed air for the “suction” func-
tion to the G1/8" thread labeled with the number
1.
