Standard Gripper-Arm Components Online
New gripper components in an online catalog with CAD configuring and viewing functionalities.
AGS Automation of Germany is offering a new gripper-arm clamping piece in its modular system. This device permits easy changes to the angle of the gripper arm in three dimensions.
AGS now also has a PTFE coating available for gripper fingers to prevent sticking of elastomeric or other soft adhesive materials.
AGS products are available online through a newly revised customer portal, which includes CadGrip software for download. This lets users put together all gripper parts as a 3D model and view it from all perspectives. When finished, the user can export the corresponding components as an Excel document and use it to order the components through the portal.
