6. Function
The gripper fingers of the parallel gripper are arranged parallel to each other on two opposing guide rails and can be
moved relative to each other. The force of the motor is transmitted over a worm drive. A pinion and a rack generate the
movement of the gripper jaws and synchronize these movements.
Despite its small installation space, the gripper is qualified for the gripping of a wide range of form fit and frictional fit
parts and can easily be integrated into the existing control system. The gripping force can be adapted optimally to the
workpiece conditions.
You can optionally adjust the gripping force onto the workpiece by means of the integrated potentiometer or over the
control system via IO-Link. The gripper can be controlled like a valve via I/O ports or via IO-Link. Both versions are easy
to integrate into the control system.
