Airtac HFR 180° Pneumatic Gripper HFR16
1. Integrated wedge mechanism design delivers superior clamping force output;
2. Anti-collision cushion integrated at piston front effectively reduces metallic impact noise during jaw release operation;
3. Precision alignment dowel pin holes on base surface ensure enhanced mounting accuracy and maintain positional consistency during repeated assembly/disassembly cycles;
4. Exceptional gripping repeatability (±0.02mm) optimized for automated equipment integration;
5. Comprehensive series configuration with multiple specifications accommodates diverse workpiece geometries and handling requirements.

Installation tips:
Mount using M4 screws with 25mm center spacing. Apply silicone-free lubricant
(ISO VG32 grade) to air ports during maintenance. Avoid side-load exceeding
15N during operation. For vertical mounting, install drip-proof cover (optional accessory).
