Product Information

Full details

The Festo Parallel Gripper DHPS-10-A-NO is designed for industrial automation tasks requiring precise and secure gripping. It is ideal for users needing a compact gripper with a strong hold and reliable position sensing capabilities, though its 3mm stroke per jaw may limit applications requiring wider object manipulation. Key features include a double-acting parallel grip, 3 mm stroke per jaw, proximity sensor compatibility, gripping force backup on opening, oval piston design for a strong grip, and a heavy-duty T-slot guide for accurate jaw movement. It operates at a maximum pressure of 8 bar.

FAQs

What is the maximum operating pressure for this gripper?

The maximum operating pressure for the Festo Parallel Gripper DHPS-10-A-NO is 8 bar.

Can I use this gripper with different types of sensors?

This gripper is compatible with proximity sensors for position sensing, allowing for integration into automated systems that require feedback on jaw position.

What is the stroke length per jaw?

Each jaw has a stroke length of 3 mm.

Does the gripper maintain its grip if air pressure is lost?

Yes, it features gripping force backup on opening, which ensures a secure hold during power loss.

What type of design ensures a strong grip?

The gripper utilizes an oval piston design to provide a strong and stable gripping force.

How precise is the jaw movement?

The jaw movement is ensured to be precise through the use of a heavy-duty T-slot guide.

Troubleshooting

Gripper not closing or opening

Check compressed air supply pressure and connections. Ensure no blockages in air lines or ports. Verify sensor functionality if used.

Weak gripping force

Verify that the operating pressure meets the required specifications (up to 8 bar). Check for internal leaks or wear on seals. Ensure the object being gripped is within the specified range for the gripper.

Jaw movement is imprecise or jerky

Inspect the T-slot guide for dirt, damage, or lack of lubrication. Ensure the gripper is securely mounted and aligned.

Gripper fails to maintain grip during power loss

Ensure the gripping force backup mechanism is functioning correctly. Check for any air leaks that might be preventing the backup from engaging fully.

Pros and Cons
