Electric gripper

Thursday, 30 July, 2009 | Supplied by: Festo Pty Ltd


The HGPLE electric gripper from Festo with an integrated motor and a gear unit provides variable positioning and speed control, giving users controlled and secure gripping. The unit is suitable for applications where no compressed air is available.

Precise control over gripper positioning and speed is ensured by the Festo motor controller, which comes with programming and commissioning software.

Machine cycle times can be reduced by programming a standby position for the freely positionable gripper fingers. Internal or external gripping is possible without changing grippers.

The HGPLE electric gripper is optimised for use in harsh environments due to its sturdy T-slot design, as well as the long service life of 10 million strokes. As the HGPLE electric gripper is a part of the Festo multi-axis modular system, it has mounting dimensions and identical interfaces to Festo pneumatic grippers.
