NexBot Safety PNU411-012 Pneumatic Gripper 30mm Stroke

Overview

The NexBot Safety PNU411-012 is a parallel pneumatic gripper engineered for precision and durability in demanding industrial automation applications. This end-of-arm tool provides reliable material handling for tasks such as machine tending, assembly, and packaging. Its robust, double-acting mechanism ensures consistent performance and rapid cycle times, which is critical for maintaining high throughput in production environments. Key features include a high gripping force-to-weight ratio, allowing smaller robots to handle heavier parts without sacrificing speed or accuracy. The gripper delivers a total gripping force of 410 N, suitable for securely handling a wide variety of component sizes and materials. The housing is constructed from a hard-coated aluminum alloy, providing excellent resistance to wear and corrosion in typical factory settings. With a total stroke of 30 mm (15 mm per jaw), it offers flexibility for parts with slight dimensional variations. The PNU411-012's design also incorporates T-slots for easy mounting of custom fingers and proximity sensors to verify part presence. Designed for seamless integration, the gripper features a standard ISO 9409-1 mounting pattern, making it compatible with a broad range of NexBot Robotics arms. Its compact dimensions allow for operation in confined spaces, a common requirement in complex assembly cells. The gripper is rated IP65, ensuring protection against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for environments with moderate exposure to contaminants. Installation is straightforward, requiring a connection to a standard 24VDC solenoid valve and a regulated air supply. The combination of high repeatability (±0.02 mm) and strong gripping force makes the PNU411-012 an effective solution for applications requiring both precision and strength.
