Pneumatic grippers for delicate, circular workpieces(06/07/2011)
The new Air-Hand type MFD/MFU from Gimatic provides consistent and smooth internal gripping from internal diameters 8 to 85 mm. Suitable for handling delicate products such as glass or plastic containers preventing breaking, marking or scratchin, Air-Hands are pneumatically operated single acting cylinders. Once positioned in the centre of a circular workpiece opening, the downwards (MFD) or upwards (MFU) motion deforms, expanding the plastic bellow for gentle gripping on the internal diameter.
