Technical Data

Gripper Selection Guide
Precautions for Selection(1) Safety Measures
If the movable parts of the workpiece and gripper may cause damage to the human body or mechanicalequipment during operation, take safety measures such as installing a protective cover.
In addition, if using a pneumatic gripper, see also the common precautions of pneumatic equipment.

(2) Gripping Force and Workpiece Mass
The gripping force varies depending on action type (single acting type or double acting type) andworking pressure.It also relates to the material, shape, surface roughness and movement speed, etc. of
the workpiece to be gripped. As a general guide, select a gripper that has a gripping force of 10 to 20
times or more the workpiece weight.
In addition, it shall be greater than that when great acceleration or impact is applied during workpiece
conveyance.
Selection of an unsuitable model may cause workpiece falling, etc.

(3) Gripping Point Limit Range
Workpiece
Gripping PointL

H

When gripping a workpiece, mount the attachment to
the finger part according to the workpiece while
keeping the distances from the gripper body (gripping
point L and overhang H) within the limit range.
If they exceed the limit range, the bending moment
applied to the finger part will become large, causing
backlash and a bad influence on the life and accuracy.

(4) Attachment Design
The attachment shall be designed to be as light and short as possible.If the attachment is long andheavy, the bending moment applied to the finger part and the inertial force at the time of gripping will
become too large, causing increased backlash or damage.

(5) Opening/Closing Stroke
Select a model that has a margin in gripper opening/closing and stroke relative to workpiece.If there isno margin, gripping may become unstable due to the variation of gripper opening/closing width andworkpiece diameter.
When a detection switch is used, it may cause detection failures.

(6) Mounting
Gripper Selection Guide

12

When mounting the attachment to the finger part, do not twist the finger part.Twisting may cause
backlash or reduced accuracy.
Also, adjust and check so that no external force is applied when opening/closing the finger part.When
moving the gripper or opening/closing the finger part, collision of the workpiece or attachment with otherobjects may cause backlash or damage.
When mounting the gripper body, prevent scratches or dents due to the gripper falling or collision.

(7) Opening/Closing Speed
If the opening/closing speed of the finger part is too high, the inertia of the finger part and attachment
may cause backlash or damage.
Install a speed control valve to prevent impact.

13

Actuator Precaution ①
Please read the following instructions before use.

DesignWARNING◆ Abnormal action

Actuators may cause a kind of impact when force change occurs due to rattle in the sliding part of a machine.
In this case, actuators may result in bodily damage (e.g. hands or legs being caught) or machine damage.
Therefore, adjust actuators for smooth mechanical movement and design them to prevent bodily damage.

◆ Protective cover

When there is a risk that a system or a product is harmful to human body during operation, install a protective cover.

◆ Impact relaxation

When the driven object moves at a high speed or its mass is large, it is difficult to absorb impact using the cushion of
the cylinder only. Therefore, install a circuit to reduce the speed before going to the cushion to release impact. In thiscase, consider the rigidity of the mechanical system fully.

◆ Power source failures and supply pressure drop

If the power source (e.g. electric, pneumatic pressure, hydraulic source) has a failure or the air pressure drops due to troubles,
cylinder power will drop, thus leading to load decrease. Take measures to prevent damage to human bodies and equipment.

◆ Jumping prevention circuit

When the cylinder is driven by the exhaust center type directional control valve or one side of the piston is pressed
under the condition that air has been exhausted from the cylinder (such as when starting after the residual pressure
has been exhausted from the circuit), driven objects will jump out at a high speed. Such situation may be harmful tothe human body (e.g. hands or legs getting caught) or machine damage. Therefore, select equipment and design
circuits to prevent driven objects from jumping.

◆ Emergency stop, abnormal stop

Design actuators so that their motions do not damage human bodies or equipment even in case of emergency/
abnormal stop of the system or when the system is re-started after stop.

Selection

WARNING◆ Working pressure range

If the system is used with the maximum working pressure or above, each part will be worn or damaged, thus
resulting in breakage or operation failures.
If the system is used with the minimum working pressure or less, the specified thrust force cannot be generated,thus causing malfunctions such as failure to move smoothly. Therefore, use products within the specified working
pressure range. (See the specifications.)◆ Intermediate stop
Actuator Precaution ①

14

When the 3-position closed center type directional control valve is used to stop the cylinder piston in theintermediate position, it cannot stop it correctly and accurately because it uses not hydraulic pressure but
compressed air. Also, it is not assured that valves and cylinders leak no air. Therefore, pistons may not be able tostop for a long time. Consult us if you need to realize long time stop position retention.

Mounting

WARNING◆ Locking in mounting

Product fixing bolts and attachment/jig mounting bolts must have a locking. Mount bases must have a structure toprevent deformation and breakage due to thrust force or inertia force at stopping.

Actuator Precaution ②
Please read the following instructions before use.

Mounting

CAUTION◆ Precautions in operating

Do not use the product until it is confirmed that equipment operate properly.
After mounting, repair or modification, connect compressed air and power and conduct appropriate functional tests
and leak inspection to check if the mounting is appropriate.

◆ Equipment operation check

After mounting the product to the system, do not start the system immediately but check if the product has been
properly mounted for safety.

◆ Product handling

Dropping or hitting the product or pinching the product with a tool will result in product deformation, thus causing
accuracy deterioration and operational failure.

◆ Speed adjustment

Adjust the cylinder drive speed gradually to the specified speed with a speed controller from the low speed side.

◆ Precautions in magnetic products

Bringing magnetic products such as a magnetic disk, a magnetic guard and a magnetic tape close to the built-in
switch sensing magnet type may result in data erase. Also, do not bring them close to any equipment that may
cause malfunction due to magnetism.

PipingCAUTION◆ Treatment before piping

Before piping, blow air (flush) or clean pipes sufficiently to remove chips, cutting oil and dust from the pipes.

◆ Seal tape winding

When you screw in pipes and joints, be careful not to make piping screw chips and sealing materials enter into the inside of the pipes.
When you use a seal tape, wind a screw with the tape so that 1.5 to 2 turns of the screw head is not winded.

Fueling

CAUTION◆ Fueling to compressed air

Do not fuel the product since it is initially lubricated.

◆ Use in the lubrication circuit

Air source

WARNING◆ Quality of compressed airCompressed air containing drain (e.g. dust, water, salt, degraded compressor oil, oil carbon particles) and corrosive gas
will damage packings and other parts, thus causing operation failures and damages. Therefore, use clean compressed air.

Actuator Precaution ②

If the system needs lubricating, use additive-free turbine oil class 1 ISO VG32 or ISO VG46. Do not use machine oiland spindle oil because they will damage packings, thus causing operation failures. Do not stop lubricating in the
middle of lubricating because doing so will cause flowout of lubrication grease, thus accelerating damage ofpackings and other parts, resulting in operation failures.

15

Actuator Precaution ③
Please read the following instructions before use.

Air source

CAUTION◆ Drain removal measure

Compressed air containing a large amount of drain not only causes operation failures of the air compressor but also
causes environmental contamination. Install equipment such as an after-cooler, an air dryer and an air filter (nominal
filtration rating: 50μm or less). The air cleaning system to drive actuators is recommended in JPAS005 "Guidelines
for Use and Selection of Pneumatic Cylinders".

◆ Temperature of compressed air

Hot compressed air will accelerate damage of packings and other parts. Even when the environmental temperature
is within the specified range, heat may transmit through jigs connected to the actuator and driven objects. When theenvironmental temperature is low, drain and moisture will become solidified or frozen, thus resulting in damaged
packings and parts and operation failures. Therefore, measures to prevent freezing must be taken. Otherwise data
may be erased. Also, do not bring them close to any equipment that may cause malfunction due to magnetism.

Usage environment

WARNING◆ Outdoor use

Do not use the product in places where the product is directly or indirectly exposed to wind and rain, is exposed todirect sunlight, or any outdoor place where the product is influenced by temperature or any other factors because
this product is not resistant to weather.

◆ Use in the corrosive environment

Do not use the product in water or places where the product is exposed to salt water, acid, alkaline fluid splash, ironpowder or in their gases or moisture vapors.

◆ Cover installation

Attachment of dust, water, oil, chips, iron powder, or spatter to the rod and the sliding parts will result in damaged shafts
and packings, thus causing air leak and operation failures. Set covers on the linear guides to prevent such deposition.

◆ Operating temperature range

Use with a temperature exceeding the maximum operating temperature will result in deterioration acceleration such as
hardening of packings, thus causing operation failures. Even when the environmental temperature is within the specified
range, heat may transmit through jigs and driven objects. When the product is working at a high speed, its sliding surfaces
will locally overheat, thus causing similar problems, freezing due to adiabatic expansion or surface dew condensation.
When the temperature is lower than the minimum operating temperature, drain and moisture will become solidified orfrozen, thus resulting in damaged packings and operation failures. Therefore, measures to prevent freezing must be taken.

Maintenance and check
Actuator Precaution ③

16

WARNING◆ Removing equipment, and supplying and exhausting compressed air

Before removing equipment, make sure that driven object fall prevention measures and runaway prevention measures
have been taken, cut off supply air, turn off the power of the equipment and exhaust compressed air from the system.
Before re-starting the equipment, make sure that the jumping prevention measures have been taken and do it carefully.

CAUTION◆ Draining air filter

Operating the equipment without maintaining or draining the air dryer and the air filter will result in life shortening or
equipment failures. Drain tends to increase in summer in particular, so drain them frequently in summer. Use of a
type with an auto drain function is recommended.
