DHEF adaptive shape gripper
Gripper
The operating principle of the adaptive shape gripper is based on nature and is reminiscent of a chameleon’s tongue. The connection between the piston rod and elastic cap produces a form-fitting grip around the object when the piston rod is retracted. It folds over the object to be gripped and clasps it tightly. The cap can be changed after turning the release ring which is identified by the typical Festo blue. The adaptive shape gripper is extremely flexible and can even handle components with free shapes and round geometries. The gripper's sensor slot is integrated into the product as a design element and is thus suitable for HRC.
