What is a robot gripper used for?

The SMC RMHZ2 pneumatic gripper is used for pick-and-place operations, automated assembly, laboratory specimen handling, and multi-product manufacturing where precise and repeatable part grasping is required. Its 0.1 mm repeatability makes it suitable for high-precision applications on collaborative and industrial robots.

Is the SMC RMHZ2 compatible with Universal Robots?

Yes, the SMC RMHZ2 mounts to Universal Robots and other collaborative and industrial robots including FANUC, Yaskawa, and Omron/Techman. It features a manual tool changer with two clamper bolts for fast mounting and end-effector swaps.

How much air does the SMC RMHZ2 pneumatic gripper use?

The SMC RMHZ2 delivers up to 80 percent reduction in air consumption compared to conventional pneumatic grippers, lowering both pneumatic costs and maintenance requirements. It connects via a single air supply tube, simplifying installation and reducing complexity.

How precise is the SMC RMHZ2 gripper?

The SMC RMHZ2 repeats positioning to 0.1 mm, ensuring precise and consistent grasping for applications requiring tight tolerances. Its integrated solenoid valve and ultra-stable linear guide mechanism deliver this repeatability across pick-and-place and assembly tasks.

How heavy is the SMC RMHZ2 end effector?

The SMC RMHZ2 weighs just 0.638 kg, making it a compact and lightweight end-effector well-suited for mounting on collaborative robots without adding significant payload strain.

Pneumatic gripper for precision cobot work versus manual or basic pneumatic alternatives:

The SMC RMHZ2 is a compact, high-repeatability pneumatic gripper built for cobots that need consistent, repeatable gripping without the bulk or air consumption of conventional pneumatic models. Choose it when precision positioning and fast tool changes matter on tight collaborative cells.

For pick-and-place on delicate or precision parts, the 0.1 mm repeatability ensures consistent, accurate grasps every cycle without drift.
On space-constrained cobot arms, the 0.638 kg weight and single air tube with integrated valve eliminate cabling clutter and free payload for gripper tooling.
For multi-product lines with frequent end-effector swaps, the manual tool changer with two clamper bolts cuts changeover time and keeps the gripper mounted between jobs.
In cost-sensitive operations, 80 percent lower air consumption versus standard pneumatic grippers reduces compressed air spend and maintenance load.
For assembly and laboratory automation requiring stable cylindrical or uniform part control, the integrated linear guide and solenoid valve deliver reliable axial grip without external valve racks.
