Mechanical grippers
Gripper
Festo mechanical grippers cover parallel grippers of the HGPM and HGPP series for pneumatically operated two-jaw gripping. The HGPM series (sizes 08 and 12) is a compact version with precise guidance, available with normally-open initial position (EO) or normally-closed initial position (EZ) in three mounting geometries G6, G8, and G9. The HGPP series covers sizes 10, 12, 16, 20, and 25 with variants A, A-G1, and A-G2 per size for different mounting configurations.
| Series | Size | Initial position | Mounting |
|---|---|---|---|
| HGPM | 08 | EO or EZ | G6, G8, G9 (3 variants) |
| HGPM | 12 | EO or EZ | G6, G8, G9 (3 variants) |
| HGPP | 10, 12 | Open | A, A-G1, A-G2 |
| HGPP | 16, 20 | Open | A, A-G1, A-G2 |
| HGPP | 25 | Open | A, A-G1, A-G2 |
Typical applications: Workpiece gripping in assembly machines and loading stations, loading CNC machines with turned and milled parts, handling plastic injection moulded parts and electronic assemblies, pick-and-place in robot cells with linear axes, and transfer operations in indexed conveyor systems.
