2 Jaw Gripper - Fabco-Air

Two-jaw grippers are the workhorse of robotic and automated part handling. Two parallel or angular fingers close on the part to grip it securely, so they suit picking, placing, machine tending and assembly work.

Two-Jaw Gripper Options

• Parallel grippers – fingers move straight in and out for consistent gripping
• Angular grippers – fingers pivot open for compact, economical designs
• Long-stroke grippers – handle a wide range of part sizes
• Pneumatic and electric drives – fast air-powered or programmable electric
• Sealed and high-force models – for dirty environments and heavy parts

Sizing a Gripper

Calculate the grip force needed for the part's weight, plus a safety factor for acceleration and finger length. Choose a stroke that clears the part comfortably. Custom fingers shaped to the part improve grip and prevent slipping. Position sensors confirm that the gripper has opened or closed.
