Soft Gripper Combines Flexibility, Washdown

Feb. 11, 2022
The piSOFTGRIP 100 gripper from Piab packs functionality into a small footprint.

The piSOFTGRIP 100-4 has four gripping fingers and a vacuum cavity allowing it to hold objects up to a width of 100 mm (3.93 in.). Made in detectable silicone approved for direct contact with food, the vacuum gripper can be used to automate the handling of all sorts of fresh, unpackaged and delicate food items, without the risk of crushing it.

These grippers have a very small footprint making them ideal for multiple applications even in space-restrained machine settings. They do not require any specific programming. To ensure the right gripping force for gentle but safe handling of delicate objects, the vacuum level can easily be adjusted.
