Series 8400 micro angular grippers

The Series 8400 micro pneumatic angular grippers from PHD are designed for compact precision applications where reliable angular movements and high gripping force are required. These grippers combine a robust design with a hardened steel pivot mechanism and minimal jaw play, making them ideal for robotics, pick-and-place systems, and automated assembly. With four bore sizes (8.7 mm to 25.4 mm) and gripping forces up to 340 N, the 8400 grippers provide a solution for demanding applications in space-constrained environments. The self-lubricating design and field-repairable construction ensure minimal maintenance requirements and maximum reliability.

Advantages

  • Compact design for applications in confined spaces
  • Hardened steel pivot mechanism for minimal jaw play and high durability
  • Three standard mounting surfaces for flexible integration
  • Blank fingers available for custom tooling
  • Magnetic and inductive switches for precise position detection
