Grippers & Suction Caps

Pneumatic grippers and suction caps from Freudenberg Sealing Technologies are ideal for automation in serial production and assembly, and in conveyor and packaging technology. Here, they are mainly used in complex systems, such as assembly machines, robots and handling systems. The pneumatic grippers and suction caps from Freudenberg Sealing Technologies meet all requirements demanded from industry for flexible, universal usage options.

The grippers consist of a pneumatic cylinder operated via compressed air. These are among the most commonly used gripper systems and can move or position objects with perfect accuracy, as is necessary during insertion and transfer operations. The suction caps are available in adhesive and vacuum versions. They are used wherever workpieces have a largely smooth and air-impermeable grip surface, such as in automated handling technology. Thanks to the perfect geometry, the suction caps can even grip products with a curved surface.

The pneumatic suction caps are made of wear-resistant elastomers and are precisely adapted to the requirements of the application, such as temperature resistance and the surface quality of different materials. The advantage: no additional fastening elements are required, the application options are varied and the quality, as with all Freudenberg Sealing Technologies products, is extremely high. In addition, adhesive suction caps do not require any additional fastening elements in the form of a vacuum system; all that is required is to position the suction caps on a pipe with a bead and, if necessary, fit a hose clamp. Without a ball closure, adhesive suction caps can also be operated as vacuum suckers.

Our range of pneumatic grippers and suction caps in various diameters and heights, including product and material data sheets, ordering options, prices and availability as well as dealer contacts, can be found in our FST e-catalogue.
