Grip It. (Produce).

Looking to automate a small-parts picking and insertion application? A new modular system that is pneumatically actuated may be what you need. The KONEX system from Schunk Precisian Workholding Systems (Morrisville, NC) features a two-finger parallel gripper than can handle ID's and OD's. Supporting the gripper are a swivel unit, a linear unit, and a snap-connector adapter. This is a modular system that can be quickly configured as required. The components are constructed with Poly-A resin, which means they're light for quick action during operation.
