Easily Adjustable and Flexible Gripper



The SCHUNK EGH Co-act gripper is an adjustable, flexible gripper for cobots. It is designed with a long, easily programmable stroke with parallel finger movement.

Recently introduced as part of SCHUNK's Plug & Work portfolio, the new EGH Co-act gripper is a way to easily implement automation with a cobot. Easy to install and control and fully programmable to provide flexible workpiece handling, the EGH is particularly suited to the handling, assembly and electronics industries.

Additional features include:

  • Integrated status display for visualizing the current operational status on eye level
  • Control via IO-link allows for pre-positioning of gripper fingers and evaluation of gripper condition
  • Gripper movement with parallel kinematics for constant gripping force during the entire stroke
  • Easily accessible quick-release assembly lock for simple and quick mounting to the lightweight robot
  • Optional flexible gripper fingers improve flexibility and range of usage of the gripper.

A complete starter kit for fast and convenient installation of the EGH gripper is available. It includes all required components for plug and work mounting of the gripper to a cobot.
