Specifically designed to meet both economical and ecological objectives, the GPD5000IL hybrid centric gripper is equipped with an integrated control unit, consisting of a control module and a micro valve terminal. The latter considerably shortens the way the compressed air as the drive medium has to pass between the valve plug and the drive piston and thus offers an approximately 20 per cent higher efficiency than comparable grippers. Corrosion-resistant materials and integrated seals, in accordance with protection class IP 67, additionally emphasise the longevity and reliability.
