6 by GRIPPER As the gripper is double-acting, it can be used to grip a piece either when the jaws are or. Pressurized chamber R P The gripping force depends on the shape of the gripper fingers. F=21 N F=21 N F=9 N F=9 N GX-16S Torque ß ( ) 311

7 MOUNTING The gripper can be mounted to a static or a moving part. When on a moving part, attention must be paid to the inertial force which the gripper and its load are subjected to. 1- To mount the gripper on the wider side, use (2) thru bolts in the plate and thread them into the tapped holes (A) of the gripper. 2- The gripper can be mounted with (2) bolts thru the mounting holes (C). 3- To mount the gripper on the narrow side, use (2) bolts thru the holes in the plate and thread them into the tapped holes (D) of the gripper. 4- To mount the gripper on the bottom, use (2) bolts thru the plate and thread them into the tapped holes (F). For the reference, use a centering disc in the spot face (G) and a pin in the slot. In this case, allow the necessary room for the sensors (Y). 312

8 by The gripper fingers must be as short and light as possible. Mount them with (2) bolts into the threaded holes (L). For a precise positioning on the jaws use the calibrated dimension (H). Pay attention to dimensions (M) and (N).

10 by SAFETY LOADS Check the table for maximum permitted loads. Excessive forces or torques can damage the gripper, cause malfunctions and endanger the safety of the operator. F, Mx, My, Mz, are the maximum permitted loads under static conditions when the jaws are not moving.

Use flow controllers (not supplied) to achieve the desired speed. GX-1S GX-2S GX-16S GX-25S 315

11 SENSORS The operating position is detected by one or more magnetic proximity sensors (optional) through a magnet placed on the piston. Magnetic proximity sensors should not be used in the vicinity of large masses of ferromagnetic material or intense magnetic fields as this may cause detection problems and jeopardize proper operation. The sensors that can be used are: OUT SN... PNP Magneto-resistive SS... NPN OUT SN4N225G PNP 2.5m cable $26.14 SN4M225G NPN 2.5m cable $26.14 SN3N23G PNP M8 snap plug connector $29.96 SN3M23G NPN M8 snap plug connector $29.96 SS4N225Y PNP 2.5m cable $26.14 SS4M225Y NPN 2.5m cable $26.14 SS3N23Y PNP M8 snap plug connector $29.96 SS3M23Y NPN M8 snap plug connector $29.96 They are all provided with a flat three-wire cable and a LED. 316

by PIPING THE UNIT The gripper is pressurized from the side ports (P and R) using proper fittings and tubing (not supplied). Compressed air in P: gripper. Compressed air in R: gripper.

12 by PIPING THE UNIT The gripper is pressurized from the side ports (P and R) using proper fittings and tubing (not supplied). Compressed air in P: gripper. Compressed air in R: gripper. The compressed air must be filtered using a 5 to 4 micron filter. The initial choice on air lubrication (lubricated or not) must be kept for the entire service life of the gripper. The pneumatic circuit must be pressurized progressively to avoid uncontrolled movements. R P PNEUMATIC CIRCUIT Possible problems on a compressed air circuit: 1- Pressure variations. 2- Pressurizing the empty gripper at start-up. 3- Sudden lack of pressure. 4- Excessive drive speed. Possible solutions to the above issues: 1- External compressed air storage (A). 2- Start-up valve (B). 3- Safety valves (C). 4- Flow controllers (D). 317

13 CAUTION Never let the gripper come into contact with corrosive substances, powders, or soldering or welding spatter as they will damage the gripper. Never let non-authorized persons or objects be within the operating range of the gripper. Never operate the gripper on a machine that does not comply with the safety standards and laws of your country. MAINTENANCE The gripper must be lubricated every 1 million cycles, using the following products: Molykote DX (metal parts); Molykote PG75 (gaskets). The figure below shows the jaw backlash. 318
