SCHUNK GmbH & Co. KG
Compact electric gripper-swivel module combining 140 N parallel gripping and continuous rotation in one 1.2 kg unit. Handles workpieces up to 0.55 kg with 0.02 mm repeatability and no pneumatic supply needed.
SCHUNK EGS electric parallel gripper with rotation is a two-finger rotary gripper for automation applications requiring compact gripper swivel modules in assembly, electronics handling, and pick-and-place environments.
The SCHUNK rotary gripper combines parallel gripping and rotational positioning in a single module, eliminating the need for separate actuators and supporting coordinated movements in limited space.
Direct electric actuation removes the requirement for external pneumatic supply, reducing installation complexity and streamlining control integration for high-cycle automation environments.
Digital I/O control ensures compatibility with most industrial automation platforms, allowing simple commissioning and flexible system expansion.
Durable housing supports extended service life and high production cycles by minimizing wear-sensitive components; specific material details available upon request.
Suitable for ambient temperatures up to 55°C, with consistent performance and 0.02 mm repeatability for precision handling.
SCHUNK EGS is ideal for tasks where both electric parallel gripping and rotational motion are required on a single axis, providing a compact alternative to separate electric grippers and pneumatic counterparts when infrastructure simplicity and integrated movement are priorities.
For comparisons and selection guidance, see our overview on electric grippers vs pneumatic grippers to evaluate system architecture, maintenance, and operational efficiency.
Choose the SCHUNK EGS when you need gripping and rotational positioning in one compact module without external pneumatic supply lines. This electric parallel gripper combines both functions in a single housing, making it suited to tight collaborative cells and systems where infrastructure simplicity matters.
