Camozzi has added new compact grippers to its product portfolio for the assembly sector. The company is presenting a whole range of grippers at Motek, including the newly developed CGPT series, a parallel gripper with T-guide.

Humans and robots are also moving closer together in logistics. Schmalz has therefore developed a gripper solution that uses a special product design to ensure safe human-robot collaboration (HRC).
The use of robot grippers makes it possible to remove employees from hazardous areas, such as the vicinity of red-hot parts, which reduces the risk of accidents.
Added value through digitalization

Companies expect real increases in efficiency and shorter throughput times when they use digitalization solutions. Dr. Kurt Schmalz, Managing Partner of J. Schmalz, explains the challenges and benefits of networking and HRC.
The Zimmer Group has added a new pneumatic model series to its technologically leading premium gripper series 5000; versions with steel-aluminum profile groove guidance are now also available.

Schmalz has developed the Jumboflex High-Stack for overhead handling tasks. Users use the tube lifter to stack goods with a maximum weight of 45 kilograms ergonomically and up to a height of 2.55 meters.

Schunk has expanded its portfolio of small parts grippers. The basic gripper MPC is suitable for simple applications in low-contamination environments and pays off in cost-sensitive applications and for short system runtimes.
Within a year, Purple Robotics has developed the world's first vacuum gripper specifically for cobots. Purple Robotics has now been acquired by Onrobot.
Commissioning tools and flexible attachment...
Schunk equips the Co-act-EGP-C gripper with easy-to-use programming modules for the lightweight and small robots from Universal Robots. Universal attachment fingers with interchangeable plastic inserts make it easier to get started with collaborative robotics.
