How to choose Handling systems
What matters when choosing: properties, comparison and typical applications.
Technical features
System configuration and selection criteria
The basis of every handling system is the module (HSP range), which carries the pneumatic drive and gripping function. The appropriate adapter plate (BPL-1, BPL-2, BPL-3) ensures mechanical compatibility with the downstream gripper or mounting structure. Cover sets (BSD-HSP-12, BSD-HSP-16) close the module head and allow orderly compressed air routing. Selection depends on gripper size, stroke length, and the existing mounting environment.
Typical applications
Typical applications: Pick-and-place cells in electronics manufacturing, loading and unloading automation, assembly stations with pneumatic part transfer, packaging machines, and inspection and measurement stations requiring defined gripping movements.
