The Numatics WBG Series parallel grippers utilize independent pistons to open and close its jaws. A rack and pinion synchronizes the gripper´s operation independently from its force rods and support rods. These long-stroke grippers feature a rigid, wide-bearing design that is ideal for handling large, bulky parts or when long rigid tooling is needed. Compliant gripper motion is also available.
Features- High strength, anodized aluminum body for lighter weight and durability
- Ultra-high gripping force to weight ratio
- Hardened steel support shafts are guided through full width of the body and feature wiper seals to help keep rods free of debris
- Optional proximity switches to monitor opening and closed position of the jaws
