The igus RL-X0223 is a compact rotary gripper that combines pneumatic actuation with vacuum gripping to add rotational capability to delta and Cartesian robot platforms.
It delivers a 360-degree infinitely rotatable axis, a 17 mm Z-stroke, and handles payloads up to 0.3 kg.
The unit includes a lifting suction cup identified as DHS2017-S / SN-M5-DM22 and operates at speeds up to 500 rpm while maintaining a non-rotating tool center point.
Each axis can be controlled individually, and the module supports closed-loop encoder capability for accurate positioning.
Integration options include full compatibility with igus Robot Control or operation via external motor controllers such as the igus dryve D1.
This gripper is suited for high-speed pick-and-place, packaging, sorting, and light-duty handling tasks where rotary motion and vacuum gripping must be combined in a single end effector.
The RL-X0223 weighs 0.4 kg.
