SCHUNK's 2 Finger Parallel Gripper

Universal Gripper PGN-Plus-P

Universal 2-finger parallel gripper with permanent lubrication, high gripping force, and high maximum moments due to the use of a multi-tooth guidance.

FIELD OF APPLICATION

Pneumatic universal gripper for handling of workpieces in universal applications. For universal use in clean to slightly dirty environments. Special versions available for dirty environments.

Advantages:

  • Robust multi-tooth guidance for precise handing
  • High maximum moments possible suitable for using long gripper fingers
  • Lubricant pockets in the multi-tooth guidance ensure process reliability and extended maintenance intervals
  • Maximum piston surface area for maximum gripping forces
  • Mounting from two sides in three screw directions for universal and flexible gripper assembly
  • Air supply via hose-free direct connection or screw connections for universal and flexible gripper assembly
  • Comprehensive sensor accessory program for versatile querying possibilities and stroke position monitoring
  • Manifold options for special optimization for your specific case application (dustproof, high-temperature, corrosion-protected, etc)

Jaw Quick Change system for the PGN Plus-P

SCHUNK is expanding its range for the rapid change of gripper fingers. While an Allen key was still required for the proven SCHUNK BSWS jaw quick-change system, all that is needed with the new manual BSWS-M system is a push of a button to mechanically unlock the top jaw and pull it instantly off the gripper. Moreover, a new jaw is attached just as quickly and easily and connected to the gripper at the simple push of a button. This means that the tool-free jaw quick-change system reduces set-up times to a minimum, while also increasing productivity and flexibility of the entire automated system.

As an additional mounting aid, optionally available alignment pins and a corresponding alignment pin hole can now be used to ensure that the fingers can only be mounted in the correct position in the case of asymmetrical finger pairs, for example.
