Catalog excerpts

QPG is a universal three finger centric gripper featuring high process reliability and long service life, suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. Advantages • Robust and lightweight housing made of hard-coated aluminum alloy. • Sturdy T-slot guidance with hardened steel gibs for effective jaw guidance, precise handling, and easy maintenance. • Wedge-hook design for high power transmission and synchronized gripping. • Compact dimensions for minimal impact in customers' applications. • Mounting from one side in two screw directions for universal and flexible gripper assembly. • Integrated permanent magnets for direct monitoring of piston movement. • Slots for mounting and positioning of magnetic field sensors. • Air supply via hose-free direct connections or fitting screw connections. SPECIFICATIONS Model * Recommended workpiece weight is calculated for force-fit gripping with a static Coefficient of Friction of 0.15 and a Safety Factor of 3 against workpiece slippage. SECTIONAL DIAGRAM Guidelines for the selection of a gripper model Selection of the correct gripper model depends on the workpiece's weight, the friction coefficient between the fingers and the workpiece and the required motion of the application. Due to inertial forces associated with motion, the gripper model should feature a holding force from 10 to 20 times the workpiece's weight. If the application presents high acceleration/deceleration or impact during the motion, then a further safety margin should be considered.
