Grippers, Slides & Vacuum
Handling components for moving and holding parts on automated machines. The category includes pneumatic grippers, pneumatic slides and pneumatic suction cups. Grippers hold parts mechanically, slides guide them along an axis and suction cups hold smooth items using vacuum.
They are used on pick and place units, assembly stations and packaging machines. Consider the part weight, shape and surface, the stroke or opening, the mounting pattern and the air supply available. Fit sensors to confirm part presence.
