Coval
Second generation of vacuum grippers
Coval has redeveloped the carbon face gripper 'CVGC'. The new generation also takes into account current and future trends in the market for collaborative robots.
The area gripper can be used flexibly thanks to a wide range of configuration options. Every user can configure 'their' area gripper exactly according to their needs. It is available in three sizes (240 mm × 120 mm, 320 mm × 160 mm, 350 mm × 250 mm), with two types of gripping surfaces (foam or suction pad) and with or without an integrated vacuum generator. A choice of three mounting interfaces and six connection cables is available. This makes it compatible with all common cobots. According to Coval, a multi-stage pump achieves higher performance. Thanks to this equipment and the lightness of the housing, which is made of a carbon structure that is 2.5 times lighter than steel and at the same time 6 times stronger, it can carry heavier loads. The gripper is equipped with edge protection made of flexible and resistant material to protect operators in the event of contact.
