Gripper: Manufacturer, reports, information at INDUSTRIAL Production

A firm grip on fragility

Vacuum technology is often used to handle glass components without causing damage or leaving marks. Schmalz has the STGG thin glass gripper in its range for this purpose.

Schmalz modular system

At Fachpack, Schmalz will be presenting its new FXCB area gripper for collaborative robots and a modular system that allows users to assemble and modify individual grippers, as well as innovations for manual lifting tasks.

Cobot gripper

Grippers for collaborative robots

Schmalz has developed a gripper for human-robot collaboration (HRC). It is suitable for intralogistics applications such as end-of-line packaging or pick & place applications.

Suitable for all networks

Multilingual fieldbus systems

In mechanical engineering, manufacturers and suppliers must increasingly adapt to the communication capability between PLC and sensor/actuator level. SMC therefore equips the fieldbus systems and gateway units of the EX series with numerous fieldbus protocols.

Congress at Motek: Modern assembly

The "Modern Assembly" congress of the trade media handling, SCOPE and Computer&AUTOMATION will take place at Motek in Stuttgart on October 9 and 10. It highlights the challenges facing the industry and offers solutions for integrating modern assembly concepts into companies.

Gimatic grows

New building for the new building

Growing faster than planned: At the German Gimatic branch in Hechingen, another new building is being constructed behind the new building from 2016, which is due to go into operation in 2019.

Planning of handling systems

Automatically to the right system

The AsenBa research project has developed approaches to minimize the effort involved in planning handling systems.

Labeling systems

Print on cans

With the Innoket Roland 40, KHS has launched a compact labeling machine onto the market. The little brother of the Innoket Neo covers the output range from 2,500 to 25,000 containers per hour and is therefore suitable for the requirements of the food industry.
