Mechanical self-locking mechanism
The standard equipment with mechanical self-locking on the GEP2000 series grippers ensures that workpieces are held securely in the gripper at all times. Even in the event of a power failure or emergency stop, the risk of injury to employees or damage to workpieces and the system is minimized.
Automatic part detection
The grippers in the GEP2000 series actively support you in quality assurance: The standard values for your workpieces, including tolerances, can be stored in the gripper. Thanks to the integrated automatic part recognition, deviations in the product are immediately detected by the gripper. They can be sorted out immediately.
Clean room class 2
Having earned Class 2 clean room certification in accordance with DIN EN ISO 14644, the GEP2000 guarantees low particle emissions and therefore is ideally suited for use under increased hygiene requirements and in clean rooms such as those in the pharmaceuticals or electronics industry.
Protected from splash water
In order to meet the diverse requirements of a wide range of applications, the 2000 series grippers are equipped with wipers on the top cover and have the increased protection class IP54. Perfect protection against external influences such as spray water and small dust particles. In addition, the sealed guides and food-safe H1 grease are ideal for use in the food industry. The covers and screws are made of stainless steel, which makes cleaning easier and protects the grippers from corrosion damage.
IO-Link connection
The integrated IO-Link connection guarantees the simplest implementation in your communication. With IO-Link as the transmission technology, your system is prepared for the requirements of the world of Industrie 4.0. This opens up a number of advantages for you: flexible positioning, uncomplicated control, avoidance of interference contours. IO-Link also allows integrated querying.
