Overview:

The Schunk EGP 40-N-N-B (MPN: 310940) is a small electric gripper designed for precise handling of small components in automation and robotics applications. Electrically actuated via a brushless DC servomotor using a rack and pinion principle, it delivers gripping force between 35 N and 140 N with an opening and closing time of just 0.2 seconds each. The Schunk Gripper EGP 40 operates on a 24V power supply with a nominal current of 0.2 A and a maximum current of 2 A. It features integrated controller electronics and a digital inputs communication interface with 2 digital inputs, making it straightforward to integrate into existing automation systems. The aluminum alloy coated housing measures 40 mm x 26 mm x 88.4 mm and weighs just 0.32 kg, with a stroke of 6 mm per jaw and an IP30 protection rating. Backed by a 24-month warranty and supplied with an accessory kit including centering sleeves, a proximity switch bracket, and assembly instructions, the Schunk EGP 40-N-N-B is a compact and reliable choice for end-of-arm tooling in precision assembly and small parts handling applications.

Features:

  • Operating principle - Rack and pinion principle
  • Actuation - servo-electric, via brushless DC servomotor
  • Warranty - 24 months
  • Workpiece weight - is calculated for force-fit gripping with a coefficient of static friction of 0.1 and a safety factor of 2 against workpiece slippage at acceleration due to gravity g. For form-fit or capture gripping, there are significantly higher permissible workpiece weights.
  • Closing and opening times - are purely the times that the base jaws or fingers are in motion. PLC reaction times are not included in the above-mentioned times and must be taken into consideration when determining cycle times.
  • Base jaw material - Steel
  • Repeat accuracy (positioning, bi-directional) - defined as the spread of the actual position of the base jaws after 100 consecutive movements to a target position from both directions under constant conditions.
  • Service life characteristics - on request
  • Repeat accuracy (gripping) - defined as the spread of the actual position at 100 consecutive closing or opening movements on a rigid workpiece or a fixed workpiece stop under constant conditions.
  • Scope of delivery - Accessory kit for centering sleeves, bracket for proximity switch, assembly instructions.
  • Finger length - is measured from the reference surface as the distance P in direction to the main axis.
  • Repeat accuracy (positioning, unidirectional) - defined as the spread of the actual position of the base jaws after 100 consecutive movements to a target position from the same direction under constant conditions.
  • Gripping force - is the arithmetic sum of the individual force applied to each jaw at distance P (see illustration).
  • Housing material - Aluminum alloy, coated
