100 Series Fipa's upgraded 10mm-diameter sprue grippers are made of high-strength, anodized aluminum alloy. Three versions are available — grippers with sensors for both direct and indirect part detection, grippers with no sensors and grippers that have elastomer- coated jaws to protect delicate parts. The end-of-arm tools weigh less than 2 ounces.
What's new? The gapless design, which was unveiled in September.
Benefits The ability to handle parts as thin as 1mm. The new design allows the jaws to fully close, so there's no gap between them.
