è

 www.festo.com/catalogue.

Requirements for gripper fingers:

Observe maximum permitted forces and torques on the gripper jaws

è

 14 Technical data.

Use gripper fingers that are as short and lightweight as possible.

Observe maximum length and weight 

è

 14 Technical data.

Manufacture gripper fingers that are suitable for the payload and type of grip-
ping action.

Proximity sensor (optional)

If necessary, mount the proximity sensor before mounting the gripper.
When using proximity sensors for sensing the end position, take the following into
account:

Interference from ferritic attachments (e.g. retaining screws made of ferritic
steel)

Projecting proximity sensors, if applicable

Cable outlet direction of the proximity sensors

Sufficient space for the connection components

When sensing from both end positions: use separate slots for the proximity
sensors.

1. For proximity sensor SME/SMT-10: glue the sensor rail into the slot for prox-

imity sensor. Follow assembly instructions 

è

 www.festo.com/sp.

2. Mount the proximity sensor.

Use of the supply ports on the bottom of the gripper

1. Unscrew the blanking plug on the bottom of the gripper

è

 8.1 Pneumatic installation.

2. Seal the lateral supply ports at the side with blanking plugs

è

 www.festo.com/catalogue.

3. For adjusting the mounting plate/adapter kit: observe the dimensional draw-

ings in the catalogue.

4. During assembly: insert appropriately sized O-rings between gripper and

mounting plate at both supply ports.

Mounting the gripper

Position grippers with matching positioning elements on the locating holes of
the mounting surface and fasten with screws. Observe table specifications.
