Techno-Sommer Automatic is proud to announce the newly expanded line of MGW800 Series Miniature Angular Grippers designed for use in small electronic and packaging applications. These new miniature grippers are excellent for assemblies and multiple pick-and-place applications, and are now available in eight different sizes beginning at a miniscule 12 mm x 10 mm x 26 mm (L x W x H).
 
“The biggest advantage of the MGW800 gripper series is their small size and ability to fit into tight spaces. They are the perfect choice for picking up small electronic components or in medical manufacturing,” said Sales Manager Costas Charalambous. “Because of their miniature size, the MGW800 series allows manifolding through the bottom mounting surface. This eliminates side air fittings and increases the number of grippers that can be mounted closely together.”
 
The MGW800 Series was designed to ensure maximum force and moment resistance, high-precision and play-free guides. The grippers have up to 4.55 Nm (39.36 lbf · in.) of grip torque and stroke per jaw of 37.5º. Jaw position, whether opened or closed, can be sensed through the use of magnetic sensors, providing positive feedback.
