What parts make up a square (polar) gripper for a press line?

An AMG polar gripper is built around a central arm that mounts in the interface of the robot or transfer. Aluminium-profile antennas are fixed to this arm and carry the suction-cup supports (ball-joint supports or spring-axis supports). Brackets, T-plates and wedges complete the assembly; each part has its own part number and can be replaced separately.

The central arm and its positioning

The central arm slides into the interface. A positioning bar, part of the central arm, houses the interface's indexing finger to guarantee the gripper's position.

The antennas

Antennas are aluminium profiles. They also come pre-fitted with the brackets that fix them to a central arm; non-standard lengths are possible on request.

Steel T-plates slide into the 8 mm grooves of the arms and antennas to fix accessories.

The suction-cup supports

The ball-joint support, which fits every antenna and central arm, has a split ball joint that holds and locks a TUB 13 tube; it comes with its screw and T-plate.

Spring-axis supports have a sliding axis, threaded G 3/8 on the cup side and G 1/4 on the pneumatic-fitting side.

Angled wedges increase the gripping angle offered by a ball-joint support.

The vacuum circuit

The fitting bracket makes the pneumatic connection between the gripper's suction cups and the vacuum system; it comes with two RFS 10 006 fittings and its screws.
