The SCHUNK EMH RP 036 is an electric magnetic gripper designed for handling ferromagnetic parts in industrial automation.
This electro-permanent gripper delivers a maximum gripping force of 530 N across a 6.08 cm² magnetic surface, supporting horizontal payloads up to 8.5 kg and vertical payloads up to 3.5 kg.
The unit operates with brief 24 V DC pulses to switch magnetic states, achieving activation or release in 300 ms, and maintains its holding force without continuous power draw.
This gripper is suited for sheet-metal handling, bin picking, and robot-mounted pick-and-place tasks where ferromagnetic materials require secure, repeatable gripping.
The integrated logic electronics provide ready and error feedback signals compatible with standard PLCs, simplifying integration into automated cells.
Rated to IP52, the EMH RP 036 performs reliably in clean to lightly contaminated environments at ambient temperatures up to 50°C.
Optional pole extensions enable adaptation to varying part geometries.
Weighing 1 kg, the compact design supports mounting on collaborative and industrial robot arms where payload capacity and space are considerations.
Power-off hold capability adds safety in the event of electrical interruption.
