The appropriate SCHUNK gripper can be selected according to component dimensions, weight, gripping force, required stroke, gripper finger length, cycle time and operating environment.

SCHUNK Pneumatic Grippers

SCHUNK pneumatic grippers provide a robust solution for high-cycle industrial automation, robotic handling and CNC machine tending applications.
For general-purpose parallel gripping applications, see the SCHUNK PGN-plus-P Parallel Gripper, designed for industrial handling and automation applications.
Common applications include:

  • CNC machine tending
  • Robotic pick and place
  • Assembly automation
  • Material handling
  • Machine loading and unloading
  • Part transfer

    Centricorp can also design and manufacture customized gripper fingers according to component geometry and gripping requirements.

SCHUNK Electric Grippers

SCHUNK electric grippers provide flexible and programmable gripping solutions for robotic automation, CNC machine tending, assembly and material handling applications.

Unlike conventional pneumatic grippers, electric grippers can provide programmable jaw positions, adjustable gripping force and controlled gripping movements. This makes them particularly suitable for applications handling different product sizes or requiring frequent production changeovers.

Typical applications include:

  • CNC machine tending
  • Robotic pick and place
  • Collaborative robot applications
  • Assembly automation
  • Flexible manufacturing
  • Component handling
  • High-mix production

SCHUNK electric grippers can be integrated with industrial robots and cobots to create flexible automation systems capable of handling multiple workpiece types.

Centricorp can assist with SCHUNK electric gripper selection, customized gripper finger design and complete robot integration according to the workpiece dimensions, weight, required stroke, gripping force and cycle time.

SCHUNK Tool Changers

SCHUNK tool changing systems allow industrial robots and automation systems to automatically or manually exchange end-of-arm tooling.
Tool changers can be used where one robot performs several processes or handles different products requiring different grippers or tools.
Applications include:

  • Robot gripper changeover
  • Multiple end-of-arm tools
  • Machine tending
  • Assembly automation
  • Material handling
  • Flexible manufacturing systems

For manual robotic tool changing applications, see the SCHUNK SHS Manual Tool Changer.

SCHUNK Clamping Technology Malaysia

Centricorp also supplies SCHUNK clamping and workholding technology for CNC machining, milling, turning and automated manufacturing applications in Malaysia.
SCHUNK workholding solutions are designed to provide accurate and repeatable component positioning while supporting efficient machine setup and production changeover.
Solutions include:

  • Machine vises
  • Chuck technology
  • Toolholding systems
  • Workpiece clamping
  • Automated clamping
  • Zero-point clamping systems

SCHUNK Zero-Point Clamping Systems

SCHUNK zero-point clamping technology allows fixtures, pallets and workpieces to be positioned and clamped repeatedly with high accuracy.
Zero-point systems can significantly reduce machine setup and changeover time, making them suitable for CNC automation and flexible manufacturing.
Typical applications include:

  • CNC milling machines
  • Machining centers
  • Automated pallet handling
  • Robot-loaded CNC machines
  • Flexible manufacturing cells
  • Fixture changeover

SCHUNK Arbors & Mandrels

SCHUNK arbors and mandrels provide precision internal clamping solutions for CNC machining and automated manufacturing applications.
They are particularly suitable for workpieces that need to be located and clamped from an internal bore, allowing the external surfaces of the component to remain accessible for machining.
Typical applications include:

  • CNC turning
  • CNC milling
  • Gear manufacturing
  • Grinding applications
  • Bore-based workpiece clamping
  • Precision component machining
  • Automated workpiece loading
  • Robot-loaded CNC machines
  • High-volume production

SCHUNK expanding arbors and mandrels can provide accurate workpiece centering, repeatable clamping and secure holding of components during machining.
They are suitable for components such as gears, rings, sleeves, bushings, flanges and other parts with an internal bore.
For automated CNC applications, SCHUNK arbors can also be integrated with robotic machine tending systems to provide repeatable automatic loading, positioning and clamping.
Centricorp can assist with selecting a suitable SCHUNK arbor or mandrel according to the workpiece bore diameter, component dimensions, machining process, required accuracy and automation

SCHUNK for CNC Machine Tending

SCHUNK provides technologies for robot automation, CNC machine automation and flexible manufacturing systems, combining robotic handling with gripping, workholding and zero-point clamping solutions.
Centricorp can integrate SCHUNK components with industrial robots and cobots for automated machine loading, workpiece handling, pallet handling and fixture changeover.
SCHUNK automation solutions include:

  • Lean automation
  • Vise automation
  • Workpiece automation
  • Pallet automation
  • Workpiece & pallet automation
  • Flexible manufacturing systems
  • CNC machine tending

Lean & Vise Automation

Robots or cobots can automatically load and unload CNC machines while SCHUNK vises and workholding systems provide accurate and repeatable component clamping.

Workpiece Automation

SCHUNK grippers can handle individual components between storage, CNC machining and inspection processes, including turning, milling and grinding applications.

Pallet Automation

Robots can automatically exchange complete fixtures or pallets. Combined with SCHUNK zero-point clamping, this can reduce machine setup and changeover time.

Flexible Manufacturing Systems

For larger systems, robots can manage multiple CNC machines, workpieces, pallets and fixtures automatically. Centricorp can integrate the complete system including SCHUNK components, robots, storage systems, PLC controls and safety systems.

SCHUNK for Robot Automation

As an automation system integrator, Centricorp can incorporate SCHUNK components into complete robotic automation systems rather than supplying individual components only.
Our automation capabilities include:

  • Robot pick and place
  • CNC machine tending
  • Assembly automation
  • Material handling
  • Machine loading and unloading
  • Robotic palletizing
  • Packaging automation
  • Part transfer
  • Custom robotic cells

Depending on the application, our engineering team can assist with robot selection, gripper sizing, gripping-force calculations, custom finger design, fixture design, PLC programming, robot programming and complete system commissioning.

Selecting the Right SCHUNK Gripper

Selecting the correct gripper depends on the workpiece and automation process.
Important parameters include:

  • Workpiece weight
  • Part dimensions
  • Required gripping force
  • Jaw stroke
  • Finger length
  • External or internal gripping
  • Robot acceleration
