The intelligent EGK small parts gripper impresses with its process reliability. Its spur gear with rack and pinion principle ensures a constant gripping force over the entire length of the finger and enables permanent gripping. The integrated gripping force maintenance prevents workpiece loss and reliably maintains the finger position even in the event of an emergency stop. The SoftGrip mode also enables the safe gripping of fragile workpieces without impulse forces. This makes it perfect for demanding tasks in the laboratory industry and electronics manufacturing. The EGK offers a wide range of interfaces, including PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, IO-Link and Modbus RTU. Software integration is easy thanks to the included PLC function blocks and plug-ins from leading robot manufacturers and does not require any additional gateways or programming effort.
