AirTAC HFK Series Air Gripper
Parallel Style Pneumatic Air Gripper with Roller Bearing Guide
The AirTAC HFK Series Air Gripper is a parallel-style pneumatic gripper featuring an integrated linear guide roller design for high rigidity, high precision and stable gripping performance.
Available in double acting and single acting configurations, the HFK Series provides reliable parallel gripping for pick-and-place, assembly, component handling and industrial automation applications. Multiple finger mounting options and flexible installation methods make it suitable for a wide range of automated machinery.
HFK Series
Available Models
Double acting parallel-style pneumatic air gripper with roller bearing guide, designed for precise and stable gripping in industrial automation applications.
Single acting normally closed parallel air gripper with spring return, suitable for applications requiring the gripper to remain closed when air pressure is released.
Single acting normally open parallel air gripper with spring return, suitable for applications requiring the gripper to remain open when air pressure is released.
