Gripping and rotating module

The compact rotary gripper module EHMD from Festo is ideal for handling small parts such as sample vials. Not only is it perfect for laboratory automation, but its compact dimensions also make it suitable for small parts assembly, the electronics sector and the food and beverage industry.

When combined with a 3-dimensional gantry, the rotary gripper module EHMD is also perfect for pick & place tasks, quality inspections with cameras, bar code identification and label printing processes.
Featuring a stepper motor for continuous rotation, it makes it possible to handle small objects across a vast array of applications. The rotary gripper module EHMD comes in two versions: electric rotation and gripping or electric rotation and pneumatic gripping. The optional Z-module is especially practical as during rotation it balances out thread pitches on covers of up to 10 mm, without the Z-axis having to be moved.
