Lightweight Layer Grippers ZLW
Variable length and width layer gripper
Increased process efficiency and reduced initial costs through the use of robots with lower lift capacity
Gripper design based on the workpiece layer
Minimized vacuum generation power due to suction grid design optimized for particular workpieces
Optimally coordinated gripping system incl. vacuum generation and controllable valves
Your Individual Configuration
The layer gripping systems are specially adapted to your applications. Contact us and receive a custom made offer.

Design

- Rigid flange (1) for connection to common robots and portals
- Optional: Spring-mounted flange to compensate for height differences in the workpiece layer (2)
- Gripper with sealing element made of plug-in suction cups (3) or sealing foam (4)
- Optional: rounded frame (5) for increased safety in MRC applications
- Connection for external vacuum generation (6)
