The SMC magnetic gripper uses pneumatic actuation to handle ferromagnetic metal parts in manufacturing and assembly automation.
Weighing 1.11 kg, this end effector delivers up to 1,000 N of gripping force for reliable workpiece retention.
The unit operates with a single pneumatic supply for release and requires an electrical connection for magnetic actuation.
This gripper addresses applications where vacuum suction proves impractical, including workpieces with perforations, uneven surfaces, or high air permeability.
Multiple port options provide flexibility for sensor integration or blow-off functionality.
The design supports integration into robotic systems, including collaborative robot platforms.
The gripper is rated for ambient temperatures up to 60°C.
Suitable applications include sheet metal handling, parts assembly, bin picking, and other automation tasks requiring secure magnetic gripping of ferrous materials.
