Koganei Parallel Clamping Modules

Manufacturer: KOGANEI CORPORATION

Features

This module effectively functions as the fingers in the hand (gripper) unit. Because the cylinder operates asynchronously, it offers superior positioning during clamping. As a result, it ensures precise and reliable gripping. Furthermore, this module is particularly suitable for handling small workpieces, making it an ideal choice for tasks requiring stability and flexibility. Additionally, it enhances overall efficiency in delicate operations, ensuring consistent performance across various applications.
