CKD provides 3 types of Pneumatic Grippers for collaborative robots. The “RLSH-Compact,” “RHLF-Long Stroke,” and “RCKL-3-way fingers” are compact and lightweight, but have a high gripping force and are easy to set up. The grippers can be replaced without tools and share common flanges for easy replacement.To improve workers’ safety, the 360-degree visible indicator lamps provide an instant view of the state of the gripper actuation. All the components required for plug and play use come standard with CKD Pneumatic Grippers.
The fingers of the CKD gripper for collaborative robots open and close with compressed air to grip workpieces. Compressed air is required as a power source. The opening and closing of the gripper is performed by switching the direction of the control valve, the gripping force of the gripper is adjusted by a regulator (separately installed), and the speed of the gripper is tuned by turning the speed adjustment knob on the side of the product.
