Numatics AG Gripper by Numatics Actuators and Motion Control

Manufacturer: Numatics Actuators and Motion Control

The Numatics AG Series angular gripper utilizes a double acting piston with a dual pivot system. The piston has a single center pivot that drives each gripper jaw open and closed. The gripper jaws have an independent stationary pivot which each jaw arcs about. The ratio between the piston and jaw pivots has been optimized for maximum operating performance. The AG series angular gripper is a cartridge style design. The cartridge design utilizes a minimum number of components, seven major components in all. The cartridge design offers the greatest grip force to size ratio over other conventional designs.
