Magnetic switch does not work?
Possible cause
Corrective action
Use steel screws to mount the gripper
Use VA-screws
Mounting plates, brackets, etc. from non
magnetic materials
If possible, use aluminium of plastic
The gripping force drops?
Possible cause
Corrective action
Compressed air can escape
Check seals; if necessary, dismantle module
Pressure drops below minimum.
Check the air supply.
Module does not achieve the opening and closing times?
Possible cause
Corrective action
Compressed air lines are not installed opti-
mally
If present: Open the flow control couplings
on the module to the maximum that the
movement of the jaws occurs without
bouncing and hitting.
NOTICE! The one way flow control valves
must not be removed even when the grip-
per has reached the opening and closing
times.
Check compressed air lines.
Inner diameter of the compressed air lines
are sufficiently large relative to the com-
pressed air consumption
Compressed air lines between module and
control valve shoud be kept as short as poss-
ible
Flow rate of valve is sufficiently large rela-
tive to the compressed air consumption
Load too high
Review permissible weight and length of the
jaws
