What grippers is the SMC MH-X7654 compatible with?

The SMC MH-X7654 mounts via stainless-steel plate to SMC MH-series air grippers, including MHS3 25D, MHS3 40D, and MHS3 16D variants. Check your gripper model against the MH-series lineup to confirm compatibility.

Can I use this soft gripper for food handling?

Yes, both the EPDM and silicone rubber options are FDA-compliant and safe for direct contact with food, pharmaceuticals, and sensitive goods. Choose the material variant that suits your temperature and chemical exposure needs.

What temperature range does the MH-X7654 handle?

EPDM operates from -20°C to 150°C, while silicone rubber extends the range to -30°C to 200°C. Select silicone if you need extreme temperature or chemical resistance.

How much weight does each finger add to my gripper?

Each finger weighs only 35 grams, with a total unit weight of 0.356 kg, so impact on gripper payload and robot wrist capacity is minimal.

What types of parts can the MH-X7654 grip without damage?

The soft, elastic grip adapts to irregular and fragile workpieces like bottles, cans, packaged food, and electronics components. The flexible design reduces product breakage and surface abrasion compared to rigid fingers.

Soft gripper fingers versus rigid parallel jaws:

The SMC MH-X7654 is a soft rubber finger attachment for air grippers, chosen over rigid metal jaws when parts are fragile, irregularly shaped, or require food-safe contact. Rigid fingers apply point pressure and risk breakage; soft fingers conform and distribute grip force across the workpiece surface.

For delicate items like bottles, cans, or packaged food, the elastic grip prevents dents and surface damage that rigid jaws would cause.
Irregular shapes and soft products grip securely without slipping, since the finger adapts to contours rather than forcing a fixed clamping geometry.
FDA-compliant EPDM or silicone rubber allows direct contact with food and pharmaceuticals, eliminating cross-contamination risk in regulated lines.
At 35 g per finger, minimal weight preserves payload capacity and speed on collaborative and small-payload robots.
High abrasion resistance extends service life in high-cycle food processing, packaging, and electronics assembly where product handling repeats thousands of times per shift.
Silicone option tolerates extreme cold (down to −30 °C) and heat (up to 200 °C) in freezer, oven, or chemical exposure scenarios.
