AirTAC HFY Series Air Gripper
Angular Style Pneumatic Air Gripper
The AirTAC HFY Series Air Gripper is an angular-style pneumatic gripper designed for reliable gripping and handling in industrial automation applications. Its single-piston structure provides strong gripping torque while the angular jaw movement offers a wide gripping range.
Available in double acting and single acting normally open configurations, the HFY Series features precise positioning, adjustable gripping speed and flexible mounting options. It is suitable for pick-and-place systems, automated assembly, workpiece handling and other industrial automation applications.
HFY Series
Available Models
Double acting angular-style pneumatic air gripper designed for reliable gripping torque, precise positioning and repetitive industrial automation applications.
Single acting normally open angular-style pneumatic air gripper designed to return the gripping jaws to the open position when air pressure is released.
