The SoftGripping Four-Finger Parallel Gripper is a pneumatically actuated end effector that uses flexible, FDA-approved food-grade silicone rubber fingers to handle delicate objects without surface damage.
The gripper accommodates rectangular, cubic, and lying cylindrical items from 5 mm to 120 mm in size, with a maximum payload capacity of 600 g.
Weighing 0.4 kg, the lightweight construction supports fast cycle times while maintaining gentle contact with fragile products.
This gripper is suited for food processing and packaging operations where surface integrity must be preserved during handling.
Typical applications include steaks, seafood, chocolate bars, croissants, and laboratory beakers.
The pneumatic actuation provides adaptive grip force that conforms to part geometry without requiring complex force control programming.
Integration is supported through IO-Link and Modbus TCP interfaces.
The gripper includes plug-and-play functionality with intuitive configuration tools and pre-configured control units to reduce commissioning time.
Compatibility extends to robots from major manufacturers, though specific models should be verified for your application.
