Description
Pneumatic grippers (also known as pneumatic clamping jaws or pneumatic fingers) are compressed air-powered actuation devices designed for precise workpiece gripping and handling applications. Originally developed in Japan, these components have become essential in modern industrial automation systems.
The HFKL series from AIRTAC represents a parallel-type guided pneumatic gripper engineered for high-precision operations. Available in standardized bore sizes (16mm, 20mm, 25mm, 32mm, and 40mm), this rail-guided design ensures exceptional alignment stability and repeatable gripping accuracy across automated processes. As a human-hand replacement solution, it significantly enhances production efficiency while maintaining operational safety in pick-and-place, assembly, and material handling applications.
Key features include integrated linear guide rails for reduced deflection, optimized gripping force transmission, and compatibility with various jaw configurations. The HFKL series exemplifies AIRTAC's commitment to delivering industrial-grade pneumatic gripping solutions with enhanced durability and maintenance efficiency.

Operation tip:
For prolonged lifespan, apply light machine oil (ISO VG32) to guide rails
every 50,000 cycles. Avoid side-load exceeding 15N during gripping operations.
