The SCHUNK EGK 40 is an electric gripper for handling small workpieces. With 41.5mm stroke per jaw and a maximum gripping force of 150N, the gripper is versatile. With its weight of 0.97 kg, it can be perfectly used with collaborative robots.
Function
The highest level of functionality is available to you, thanks to the
components embedded in the gripper. For example, the gripper fingers can
be pre-positioned at high speed or for dipping in a workpiece carrier.
The gripping force can be infinitely adjusted to the workpiece handling
requirements. Workpiece recognition provides full process transparency
for the user. In an emergency stop situation, workpiece loss can be
avoided by the integrated gripping force retention.
BasicGrip and
SoftGrip gripping modes are available. With BasicGrip and SoftGrip,
continuous operation of the motor and thus permanent re-gripping of the
workpiece is possible. With BasicGrip, the gripping speed is
automatically optimized to the gripping force setting. With SoftGrip,
fracture-sensitive workpieces can be gripped particularly gently by
reducing the impulse forces to a minimum when they hit the workpiece.
Technical data
- Stroke per jaw: 41.5mm
- Min. gripping force: 55N
- Max. gripping force: 150N
- Weight: 0.97kg
Connectivity
A wide range of available communication interfaces simplifies dealing with the variety of control and robot manufacturers and ensures time savings during integration. Industrial Ethernet (PROFINET, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP) enables direct integration without additional gateways into the control environment of leading PLC manufacturers on the market. With the Modbus RTU serial interface, the gripper can be connected to the tool flange of leading robot manufacturers without external cable routing. IO-Link is independent and offers flexibility in connecting to further networks.
