Schmalz SGM 40 Magnetic Gripper Set

The Schmalz SGM Magnetic Gripper is a complete magnetic gripper set for lightweight robots and cobots.

The compressed-air-powered magnetic gripper lifts ferromagnetic workpieces using magnetic force. It is ideal for handling sheet metal and perforated sheets, intricately laser-cut workpieces, sheets with holes and cutouts, curved sheets and pipes. The SGM-HPm series is designed primarily for parts with a sheet thickness < 2 mm.

The gripper's two connections are alternately supplied with compressed air to control the magnet, while the connection not being actuated is vented. Applying compressed air moves the permanent magnet towards the gripping surface (to grip the workpiece) or away from the gripping surface (to release the workpiece).

Compressed air must be applied for at least 1,0 seconds to ensure reliable switching.
