What is the Eberle Greifersysteme 8700 used for?

The Eberle Greifersysteme 8700 is a modular vacuum gripper build kit for engineers and integrators to rapidly prototype, test, and validate custom vacuum gripper configurations before production assembly. It enables quick concept development, interface validation, and layout optimization on robot arms.

How does a vacuum gripper work?

A vacuum gripper uses negative pressure to create suction and hold objects. The Eberle 8700 generates up to -900 mbar (negative pressure) to hold payloads securely during robotic pick-and-place and material handling operations.

What is the maximum payload for the Eberle 8700?

The Eberle Greifersysteme 8700 can lift payloads up to 2 kg with its vacuum gripper assembly. The modular design lets you test whether this capacity meets your application before scaling to production.

What is the MIDI H-profile base size?

The Eberle 8700 uses a MIDI H-profile standard format with a base geometry of 200 x 155 mm. This versatile aluminum profile adapts to a wide range of gripping concepts and enables rapid prototyping and layout optimization.

How heavy is the Eberle Greifersysteme 8700 kit?

The kit weighs just 0.78 kg, making it lightweight for quick concept development and easy mounting on robot arms during testing and validation phases.

Modular vacuum gripper build kit from Eberle Greifersysteme with H-profile components for prototyping and testing custom configurations. Supports payloads up to 2 kg at -900 mbar vacuum, weighs 0.78 kg, and uses standardized 200 × 155 mm MIDI geometry to validate mounting, spacing, and interface compatibility before production assembly.

Overview:

The Eberle Greifersysteme 8700 Vacuum Gripper Build Kit is a modular tooling kit for engineers and integrators developing and testing custom vacuum gripper configurations in robotic automation.

Main Features:

Supports payloads up to 2 kg
Operates at vacuum levels up to -900 mbar (negative pressure, used for strong suction applications)
Kit weight: 0.78 kg
MIDI H-profile standard format, 200 × 155 mm base geometry

Applications:

Eberle Greifersysteme 8700 enables rapid prototyping, fitment checks, and comparative testing for suction gripper and vacuum gripper concepts in modular end-of-arm tooling. The MIDI H-profile refers to a standardised aluminum section used for compatibility and component spacing. Ideal for concept development, interface validation, and layout optimisation before production assembly is specified.

Common Questions:

How do you use a vacuum gripper build kit? Engineers assemble Eberle modular components to test payload capability, spacing, and compatibility on robot arms and automation hardware.
What components are included? The kit includes essential Eberle vacuum and mounting elements for prototyping modular gripper layouts on a MIDI H-profile base.

Prototyping kit versus pre-configured vacuum grippers:

The Eberle 8700 is a modular build kit for testing and validating custom vacuum gripper layouts, whereas pre-built vacuum grippers come fully assembled for immediate deployment. Choose this kit when you need to verify gripper geometry, payload fit, or interface compatibility before committing to a production end effector.

For concept validation on lightweight parts under 2 kg, the modular MIDI H-profile base lets you test multiple suction configurations without buying finished tooling.
On tight collaborative cells where layout space is constrained, the 0.78 kg kit weight and 200 × 155 mm footprint enable rapid prototyping without taking up significant arm payload budget during trials.
When integrating a new part geometry or material, the -900 mbar vacuum pressure and modular components allow you to assess hold strength and component spacing before production tooling is ordered.
For engineering teams evaluating gripper concepts early in project design, assembly and disassembly of the kit components supports iterative testing without the lead time of custom fixtures.
