What temperature range does the SMC MH-X7654 work in?

The SMC MH-X7654 operates between -30°C to 200°C in FDA-compliant silicone, or -20°C to 150°C in EPDM material. Choose silicone for extended high-temperature performance and food contact applications, or EPDM for standard industrial temperature ranges.

Can I use this gripper finger for food handling?

Yes, the SMC MH-X7654 is available in FDA-compliant silicone and EPDM materials that are safe for food contact and hygienic applications. Both material options are non-marking and suitable for food packaging and bottle handling.

How do I replace the SMC MH-X7654 gripper finger?

The stainless-steel mounting plate features two-direction mounting that enables quick tool-free replacement without disassembly. The slim 3 mm profile design also allows dense arrays of fingers when needed.

What workpieces can this elastic gripper handle?

The SMC MH-X7654 grips irregular and fragile workpieces with its elastic adaptive surface, making it suitable for pick-and-place automation, electronics assembly, bottle and can handling, and any application requiring soft, non-marking gripping.

What is the gripping surface size and weight of the MH-X7654?

The gripping surface measures 58 x 60 mm with a slim 3 mm profile, and each finger weighs just 35 grams. The lightweight design and compact profile make it ideal for dense gripper arrays and high-mix production lines.

Soft elastic fingers versus vacuum or rigid grippers:

The SMC MH-X7654 is a soft elastic finger for pneumatic grippers, suited to irregular and fragile items where vacuum or rigid mechanical jaws risk damage or slipping. Choose this when handling food, bottles, electronics, or delicate workpieces that need non-marking contact.

For food-contact applications or sensitive goods, FDA-compliant silicone material ensures hygiene and operates reliably up to 200 °C, meeting regulatory requirements that vacuum alone cannot guarantee.
On dense pick-and-place lines with limited gripper space, the slim 3 mm profile and 35 g weight per finger allow multiple fingers in tight arrays without tool changeover.
In high-mix production handling shapes that shift between runs, the elastic adaptive surface grips round bottles, rectangular boxes, and irregular parts without reprogramming gripper force.
For abrasion-prone cycles in food packaging or beverage lines, the abrasion-resistant rubber maintains grip surface integrity through thousands of cycles without replacement downtime.
Tool-free stainless-steel mounting on two-direction slides speeds finger swaps between production jobs, eliminating setup delays when material changes.
