Gripper Specifications
Specifications for various grippers, including 2-jaw parallel and angular grippers, are provided, highlighting features like stroke per jaw, gripping force, weight, IP class, and maintenance cycles. Safety features such as mechanical self-locking mechanisms and gripping force safety devices are emphasized.

Conclusion
Zimmer Group's components are designed for easy integration and handling, offering advanced diagnostics and preventive maintenance. The document underscores the importance of human-robot collaboration in enhancing industrial efficiency and safety.
Overview
The document provides technical specifications and product information for Zimmer Group's grippers and components, including installation sizes, stroke per jaw, gripping force, weight, IP class, and maintenance cycles for models like GED5000, GEP5000, GH6000, and others. It also outlines the Modular Construction System (MCS) and its components, connection examples, and general usage notes.

Specifications
  • GED5000: 3 installation sizes, stroke per jaw 6mm-10mm, gripping force 540N-1520N, weight 1.09kg-2.33kg, IP class 64, maintenance-free up to 30 million cycles.
  • GEP5000: Similar specifications to GED5000 but with a lighter weight range of 0.79kg-1.66kg.
  • GH6000: 5 installation sizes, stroke per jaw 20mm-200mm, gripping force 120N-3400N, weight 0.3kg-22.7kg, IP class 40, maintenance-free up to 10 million cycles.


Modular Construction System (MCS)
The MCS allows for creating workpiece-specific solutions with harmonized components, including profiles, compensation modules, suction cup mounts, and gripper fingers, ensuring a secure grip during motion.

Connection Examples
The document provides examples of connecting various series such as GPP1000, MGP800, MGW800, and GEH6000IL/GH6000 using adapter plates and MCS profiles.
