Pneumatic palletizing grippers
ARPG
Pneumatically actuated mechanism to clamp the bags from the sides, keeping bag and tool centered to prevent misalignment and maintain palletizing consistency.
These grippers are manually adjustable ± 95mm to accommodate different bag widths.
The grippers are hard coated for protection in extreme environments.
Advantages
- A sensor to verify presence/absence of the bag in the gripper.
- Capable of 20+ cycles per minute, dependent upon robot and distance traveling.
- Pre-configured for robots with an ISO 125 bolt pattern for tool mounting or many other options but able to be used without a robot and all I/O included for ease of integration.
- All electrical interconnections between the valves, sensors, and the junction box as well as the electrical cable and connector are provided for easy robot integration.
Bags Per Minute 30 BPM
Operating Pressure 4 – 6 bar
Operating Temperature 5-60°C
Noise Emissions (sound pressure) ≤ 70 dB (A) in any direction
Options
Pneumatic Pusher
- Offers controlled clamping and releasing through the use of pneumatic cylinders, as well as giving you the same amount of force on all bags, regardless of thickness.
Pallet Picker
- Enables picking and placing of standard empty pallets without interrupting the palletizing cycle
Sheet Picker
- Allows picking and placing of any type of sheet via suction cups.
Servo Bag Width Adjustment
- Provides on-the-fly bad width adjustment so that multiple bag widths can be palletized without the need for operator intervention.
Fork Gripper
Advantages
- Failsafe Bag Support, will not lose payload during the loss of power or air.
- Constructed with selective materials providing maximum strength in any industrial environment.
- Object Pressure Sensor to provide assurance that the object is within the grasp of the gripper.
