Unstable Sheet Metal Gripping? You Might Need a High-Clamping Force Industrial Gripper!

In automated production, sheet metal components—due to their thin, flexible, or curved structure—are prone to shifting, slipping, or improper positioning during handling. This leads to reduced productivity and increased defect rates. In high-speed stamping, robotic transfer, and die loading systems, a gripper with insufficient clamping force can become a weak link. The solution? A high-clamping force industrial gripper designed for secure, stable sheet handling.

1. Common Causes of Unstable Gripping

• Insufficient Clamping Force: Cannot secure large or deformed sheet metal parts

• Loose Mechanisms: Wear and vibration cause alignment shifts over time

• Inconsistent Air Pressure: Affects grip strength and reliability

• Slow Response Time: Gripper cannot keep up with fast-paced operations

2. How High-Clamping Grippers Solve These Issues

• Powerful Grip (≥30N): Prevents slippage, even with large or curved sheets

• Self-Locking Design: Maintains grip during air pressure loss, ensuring safety

• Tested for 5 Million Cycles: Durable for long-term high-frequency use

• Fast Actuation (<0.2s): Supports high-speed line performance

• Modular Build: Enables quick installation and replacement with minimal downtime

3. Ideal Use Cases

• Sheet transfer between stamping presses

• Robotic loading/unloading of automotive parts

• End-of-line sheet metal pickup in forming lines

• Smart robot arm gripping systems

• Appliance or control panel sheet handling lines
