Eight rotating jaws for parallel grippers from Techno-Sommer Automatic have the ability to grip and turn parts simultaneously thereby shortening production cycle times by up to 50%.

Eight rotating jaws for parallel grippers from Techno-Sommer Automatic have the ability to grip and turn parts simultaneously thereby shortening production cycle times by up to 50%.

The SB Series of off-the-shelf units can be fitted to most parallel grippers and handling systems.

They eliminate the need to design fixtures that might include rotary actuators to achieve a similar result.

Sizes range from models capable of handling hypodermic needles to the larger sizes designed to pick up and rotate heavy parts such as complete automotive engine blocks.

Three models use synchronous belt drives and five models are geartrain driven.

Torques range from 0.122 up to 56.9Nm.

Position sensors are available for all models.

One of the models is available with hydraulic drive.

These units are available on a free trial basis.

A free DXF CAD file drawing of this unit is available for downloading through the Techno technical support BBS or via a disk sent by mail.
