GRIPPER (EOAT) SYSTEM - PreciGrip / Channel Nut

AGS prism system ensures more precision, faster assembly and greater stability when building grippers. With PreciGrip from AGS Automation Greifsysteme Schwope GmbH, parts can be subsequently integrated into an assembly - without removing other elements

The company developed a completely new system for building grippers for industrial robots. With the PreciGrip, AGS connects the various components of a gripper through its patented prism system. This results in numerous advantages: faster and more precise assembly, more stability of the gripper and the possibility of subsequently attaching parts to the inner area of ​​the gripper - without having to remove the external elements. “If you want to use our system,” explains AGS managing director Marc Schwope, “you don’t have to convert everything straight away. The prism system can be combined with all components that need to be clamped round, such as gripper arms, gripper tongs and gripper fingers.”

The assembly can be added at any time
With PreciGrip, components can be retrofitted inside a gripper at any time - an invaluable advantage. In order to add elements to the middle of the gripper in conventional systems, the outer parts usually have to be removed. Only then can a new element be added. With the AGS patent, the part is simply attached to the desired location and then tightened. This saves the user a lot of time and works more precisely. Even the previously removed components do not have to be laboriously adjusted and attached again.
