Suction gripper for handling implement

摘要

The shape and alignment of the suction gripper (3) is variable to fit different objects (G) to be gripped. The gripper comprises an elongated adaptor element (4), extending in a longitudinal gripping direction. The adaptor element is movable by vacuum application to change its width or its length in a coupling section to a nozzle wall, or a second adaptor element.Typically the adapting of the gripper to various objects is carried out by the change in the suction performance, or the suction air flow velocity.
