Friends who have not used soft touch grippers often have a question, how fast can the fastest touch grippers be?

　　Why do soft-touch grippers achieve such high hand speeds?

Pneumatic VS electric

Due to its advantages of easy deployment and plug-and-play, the electric gripper is suitable for applications in scenarios where speed and speed requirements are not high, but mobile portability is high. The operating principle is essentially to go through an energy conversion process of electric energy-electromotive force-kinetic energy-variable speed, so that a series of devices such as motors and reducers are always required to complete the complex conversion process, and power and speed have to be sacrificed. The soft touch gripper is a direct air drive (air pressure - clamping force), and the air pressure directly drives the gripper, eliminating the intermediate links, making it more high-speed and efficient.

Soft-touch gripper VS cylinder

Pneumatic cylinder products, piston movement propelled by air pressure. The piston will collide with the cylinder wall. The conflict resistance will not only reduce the speed of the cylinder, but also cause a lot of heat to occur in the long-term high-speed movement, resulting in the rapid aging of the seal and affecting the service life.

There will be no material conflict during the operation of the soft touch gripper, so the wear and aging and power degradation caused by the conflict will be avoided, and the long-term high-speed movement will be equally stable.

Therefore, compared with the speed, only the vacuum suction cup is the same level of soft touch gripper.

So what should we pay attention to in the selection and installation of practice, so as to complete the high-speed echo?

Based on the operating principle of the soft touch gripper, it is not difficult to understand that to improve the opening and closing speed of the soft touch gripper, it is essentially to provide more flow to the gripper.

Therefore, to improve the opening and closing speed, you need to do the following:

1. Ensure the adequacy and stability of the gas source at the operation site.

2. Choose a driver with a large flow rate, and the high-speed type of PCU or iPCU is recommended here. (Compared to standard drives, high-speed drives can improve flow rates by 80% and opening and closing speeds by more than 50%).)

3. Optimize the trachea wiring, and select a shorter length and thicker diameter trachea between the controller and the gripper (ideal length<2m, pipe diameter ≥φ10mm).

4. When one drive has multiple fingers, the drive power will also be reduced. If the clamping force is satisfied, it is possible to choose to drive multiple actuators separately or reduce the number of fingers.
