Uniform block design inside the air gripper provides increased gripping force.
Available with 2-finger, 3-finger and 4-finger configurations for different workpiece handling requirements.
Bumper design at the front of the piston helps reduce impact and operating noise.
Positioning hole at the bottom of the body improves mounting precision and consistency during repeated installation.
High repeatability of ±0.01 mm makes the gripper suitable for precision automation and robotic applications.
Magnetic switch slots allow convenient installation of compatible sensors for position detection.
Two-direction mounting design provides flexible installation options.
Available in seven bore sizes: 16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50 and 63 mm.
The AirTAC HFC Series is suitable for:
- Pick-and-place automation
- Robotic gripping systems
- Automated assembly equipment
- Component handling
- Workpiece positioning
- Machine loading and unloading
- Packaging machinery
- Industrial automation systems
The AirTAC HFC Series is available with 2-finger, 3-finger and 4-finger configurations, providing different gripping force levels for a wide range of workpiece shapes and automation requirements.
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the effective gripping force per finger ranges from approximately 10 N to 537 N, depending on bore size, finger configuration and whether the workpiece is gripped internally or externally. The HFC Series provides an opening/closing stroke from 4 mm to 16 mm on both sides, depending on the selected bore size.
The parallel open/close design provides accurate and repeatable gripping, while the different finger configurations allow the HFC Series to handle various components in automated assembly, positioning and robotic handling systems.
