2-JAW PARALLEL GRIPPERS SERIES GPP5000 ►►PRODUCT ADVANTAGES “The best” ►► Steel Linear Guide – The superior guidance system concept The steel / steel guide stands for lasting precision, durability and a long service life—featuring maintenance intervals of up to 30 million gripping cycles. Benefit from these features and increase the profitability and process reliability of your machine. ►► Leakproof and corrosion protected – The universal gripper Suitable for virtually all ambient conditions, with a sealed guide up to IP67 and corrosion protection as standard, you are able to use this gripper universally. As a result, the range of models in your production is reduced, along with a reduction in associated storage and process costs. ►► Aluminum Linear Guide – The alternative Reduced to those aspects which are the most important, the steel / aluminum guide variant offers significantly better performance when compared to a similar gripper with a T-groove travel guide, and is on par with the best principles of toothed guidance systems. -- Supports to absorb high forces and moments -- Synchronized gripper jaw movement -- Gripper fingers mounted using removable centering sleeves -- Lubricated for life via incorporated lubrication slots -- Steel in steel guide -- Enables use of extremely long gripper fingers -- Also available in steel / aluminum variant 4Mounting block -- mounting for inductive proximity switch 5Integrated gripping force safety device -- Spring built into cylinder chamber as an energy store 6Drive -- Double-acting pneumatic rotor cylinder 7Mounting and positioning -- Alternatively, on several sides for customized mounting -- Pneumatic and electrical versions identical apart from height 8Sensing slot -- mounting and positioning of magnetic field sensors 9Dual lip seal -- IP64 and up to IP67 (with purged air) for Protector version -- Prevents grease from being squeezed out, increasing service life

2-JAW PARALLEL GRIPPERS SERIES GPP5000 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION GRIPPING COMPONENTS Universal jaws – UB5000 Can be used immediately or for individual reprocessing The gripper blanks are available in aluminum (AL) and steel (ST) versions and are installed directly on the gripper using the screws in the scope of delivery. The fits for the centering sleeves are already in place for this purpose. One universal jaw is required for each gripper jaw. Adjustment jaws – EB5000 For tool-free adaptation of the gripper range By manually activating the locking mechanism, which is pre-tensioned by a...

ENERGY SUPPLY Pneumatic threaded connections Available in straight and angled design. Can be chosen freely depending on the space conditions or installation situation. Pressure safety valve – DSV Ensures safe retention of force and position if the system pressure drops The integrated double check valve, which can be unlocked, retains the system pressure of the gripper in case of EMERGENCY STOP. To ensure the function, the valve must be installed as close to the gripper's air connection as possible. In variant E, two pushbuttons are installed that allow for controlled bleeding of the...

2-JAW PARALLEL GRIPPERS SERIES GPP5000 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION ENERGY SUPPLY Quick exhaust valve – DEV For rapid bleeding of the compressed air and preventing back pressure The inline valves make a faster cycle time possible and prevent the formation of condensate in grippers with a small cylinder volume. To ensure the function, the valve must be installed as close to the gripper's air connection as possible. Inductive sensors – NJ* For direct position sensing of the gripper jaws The sensor is guided into the intake as far as it will go and fixed in place using the lateral clamping screw....

1-point magnetic field sensors – MFS For non-contact sensing of the piston position These sensors are installed in the C-groove of the gripper and detect the magnet attached to the piston of the gripper. To ensure use in a wide variety of space conditions, the sensors are available in two variants. While the horizontal MFS02, with straight cable outlet, disappears into the C-groove of the gripper almost completely, the vertical MSF01 is taller, but has a cable outlet that is offset at an angle of 90°. The variants are available in versions with 5 m cables with exposed leads and 0,3 m cable...

2-JAW PARALLEL GRIPPERS SERIES GPP5000 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION SENSORS MFS02 2-point magnetic field sensors – MFS With two freely programmable switching points Using the programming unit integrated in the cable, two switch points can be freely defined for this sensor. To do so, the sensor is clamped in the C-groove, the gripper approaches position one and the position is taught in using the teach button. Afterwards, the second position is approached with the gripper and programmed. To ensure use in a wide variety of space conditions, the sensors are available in two variants. While the...

CONNECTIONS / OTHER Centering sleeves For defined position measurement of the gripper fingers The centering sleeves are inserted into the fits of the gripper jaws to define the position of the gripper fingers. The centering sleeves are comparable to a pin connection. Data, Drawings, 3-D Models, Operating Instructions ◄ www.zimmer-group.com
