The TGST inflatable gripper tube is a standard component designed for the palletizing or depalletizing of long-neck glass bottles such as wine, champagne, or beer bottles.
Made of abrasion-resistant vulcanized rubber, this gripper tube operates using compressed air, allowing a soft, secure grip without mechanical stress on the glass. Unlike rigid mechanical systems, this gripping method perfectly preserves the integrity of the bottles, with no risk of breakage or scratching.
The TGST gripper tube is available in various diameters to suit the spacing between bottle necks. It is easily integrated into a gripper head thanks to its M10x70 mm threaded rods, ensuring quick installation on any automated bottling, palletizing, or depalletizing system.
