The MultiGrip Gripper is a pneumatic, long-travel gripper incorporating the MultiGrip Jaw interface. The MultiGrip Gripper, with the MultiGrip Vise and MultiGrip Jaws, delivers more capability for CNC milling automation. Instead of picking parts directly, the MultiGrip Gripper unloads MultiGrip jaws from a MultiGrip Vise and uses the MultiGrip Jaws to pick parts for processing. Using workholding as the part gripper unlocks automation for high-mix, low-volume applications without requiring re-programming for new part introduction.
Leveraging the vise jaws for part transfer offers significant advantages for CNC automation:
Eliminates the need to duplicate part workholding for both the robot gripper and CNC
Allows machinist to easily create optimal part workholding in the CNC
Supports more complex part shapes than traditional robot part grippers
Generalized Op to Op part transfer
Lowest cost of new part introduction to automation in the industry
Faster part change-over
Increased automation reliability
Features
